1 Million Cups – Columbia Entrepreneurs Meeting
2024-06-05 09:00 - 10:00, 2024-06-12 09:00 - 10:00 | SC
Weekly meeting of local business owners and entrepreneurs for education and networking. This meeting is a mastermind with business owners in many different fields from the technology fields to the health and wellness specialties. The basic format involves business owners presenting what they do then drawing upon the collective knowledge and experience of the other entrepreneurs in attendance to help advance their own businesses.
Periodically, successful entrepreneurs, who’s businesses exceed $1 million in total revenue, will present and tell us how they achieved their successes during a “Made It” session. One I remember was a co-founder of MapQuest who ended up selling MapQuest to AOL for $1.2 billion.
These weekly meetings include education sessions in which an experienced businessperson teaches attendees how to follow what they’re doing in their businesses for our own purposes. They educate us on their specific industries.
Coffee is provided in a casual environment. Be sure to bring plenty of business cards to pass out. You never know when and where your next big business deal will occur.

Midlands REIA Monthly Meeting
2024-06-11 18:30 - 21:00 | Lexington Town Hall (Elias Mack Room downstairs), 111 Maiden Lane, Lexington, SC, 29072, United States
One of the most sought-after contractors and home inspectors in the Midlands, Wayde “Eddie” Sabina, will hold a round table to field questions from those interested in rehabbing and flipping houses for the most possible profit.
We see expensive mistakes repeated by even experienced house rehabbers that could have been avoided by a little planning before starting the rehab process. The most recent house we inspected was by two rehabbers who are fixing up a house in Irmo that’s on the Lake Murray waterfront. The rehabbers purchased the property for $925,000 back in August 2023. Just the way it was deeded tells us they probably don’t have much experience as real estate investors as the property was deeded into their personal names, not into a trust or LLC. Other mistakes include doing finish work, laying tile and installing new drywall that will just have to be torn out, before properly framing the house. Learn from Eddie as he shows us how to maximize profits by avoiding these kinds of mistakes.
