My Pinnacle Network, the business to business networking group with monthly meetings in Bourne, Braintree, Mansfield, Marshfield, Newton, and Westborough, MA, recently announced the winners of its first annual Networking Ninja Awards. The newly minted Networking Ninja Awards were created to recognize the region’s best networkers in four separate categories: Best Connector (helping bring people together); Most Ubiquitous (appears to be at every networking event); Most Altruistic (does most for others); and Brightest Beacon (adds energy to networking events).

Greg DeSimone, owner of Catapult Advisory Group located in Mansfield, MA took home the honors as Best Connector. He is a member of My Pinnacle Network-Mansfield.

Mitchell Zucker of ConnectPay based in Concord, MA won the Most Ubiquitous Networking Ninja Award. He is a member of My Pinnacle Network-Braintree Third Thursday.

David Allen, owner of Balance Wealth Advisors situated in Wellesley, MA won the Most Altruistic Networking Ninja Award. He is a member of My Pinnacle Network-Westborough and My Pinnacle Network-Newton.

Nicole Connolly of PhotoFabulousYou based in Westborough, MA won the Brightest Beacon honors for the second consecutive year. She is a member of My Pinnacle Network-Westborough.

“We had a number of networkers nominated for these awards and these individuals stood out as the cream of the crop in our region,” said Steve Dubin, founder of My Pinnacle Network. “Each of these winners has proven themselves to be first-rate connectors who are givers first, which is how they ultimately receive referrals for their respective businesses.”

Voting for the Networking Ninja Awards took place from January 1 through February 29 on the My Pinnacle Network website, www.mypinnaclenetwork.com. Others nominated for awards include: David DeBlasio of Deblasio Marketing located in Stoughton, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Mansfield; Alex Bungener of Customers at the Speed of Light situated in Cotuit, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Marshfield; Jay Nuss of Jay Nuss Realty of Braintree, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Braintree Third Thursday; and George Rohlfing of Brookline Transportation based in Hanover, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Braintree Third Thursday.

“Networking, sharing information and opportunity, is what makes the world go round,” noted Dubin. “Both whimsical and pragmatic, the Networking Ninja Awards provide recognition for many who typically do great deeds and humbly hang is the shadows.”

Why celebrate the Ides of March?

The Ides of March, March 15, is not ordinarily a day of celebration. Unless you are My Pinnacle Network Partner Joe D’Eramo.

His father was born on that day in Introdaqua, a village in Italy.To hear Joe tell the story, his father wasn’t superstitious about that day either: “One great Italian went out, another came in.”.

For the rest of us, at least this year, the Ides of March is also a day of celebration as we name this year’s Networking Ninja Awards winners. The Awards event, which is doubling as a pre-St. Patrick’s Day party is being held on March 15, 5pm to 8pm, at the Mayflower Brewery, 12 Resnk Road, Plymouth, MA.

Admission is free to this event for both My Pinnacle Network members and guests. We’re serving food but you will need to bring money if you want to imbibe. And, we would still like you to register ahead of time so we can give Mayflower Brewery an idea of how many will be attending.

You can RSVP here or sending an e-mail to  Sdubin@mypinnaclenetwork.com.

So now, everybody—My Pinnacle member or not, gets in for the same price: FREE.

Yes, we’re still serving food. You will need to bring money if you want to imbibe. And, we would still like you to register ahead of time so we can give Mayflower Brewery an idea of how many will be attending.
