Yesterday I attended the 17th Social Media Breakfast held in Boston. Our local SMB chapter is headed by Bob Collins of New Marketing Labs who does a tremendous job of putting together really smart panelists who dive into a particular aspect of Social Media to give attendees a clear, actionable plan to accomplish something. Everyone always leaves with a few tips or tricks to put into practice immediately.

I had a chance to sit down with Bryan Person, the Founder of Social Media Breakfast. I was interested in understanding how he was able to grow what originally started as just a couple of guys having breakfast in the Back Bay neighborhood of Boston, into a worldwide community of over 40 cities hosting regular Social Media Breakfasts.
