Kate Spivak Founded BlendAbout to Socially Network People in the Real World

Many social networking sites claim to connect people and bring them together, but these connections often exist only in the virtual world of the Internet.  Cool person in technology Kate Spivak believes that connections, whether professional or personal, are much stronger when made in the flesh.  That’s why this cool person founded BlendAbout, a new Internet startup that connects people of similar interests online and then also connects them in the real world.  Spivak’s company accomplishes this by matching up people with similar interests and placing them into group dinners designed for personal and professional networking.  BlendAbout meetings connect six people with similar interests according to their profiles and reserve a meal for them at a restaurant they can all travel to conveniently.  People can use these dinners to meet other people in their professional field or others who share their hobbies.  Rather than only posting comments back and forth in a forum or chat room on the web, Spivak’s startup aims to connect people in the physical world as well. 

BlendAbout connects people by linking up with their already made social networking profiles.  Spivak’s company lets users connect with Facebook, Google+, Twitter, or LinkedIn.  What social network people choose to connect with will also inform how BlendAbout matches them with other people.  For example, if someone connects via Facebook, they are likely looking for people who match up with their hobbies and recreational interests.  However, those who connect using LinkedIn are likely more interested in finding other professionals that they can network with for future professional benefit.  Those who struggle while trying to connect their social networking profiles with Spivak’s website can get help from a remote tech support provider.

Spivak’s site provides its service by collaborating with different restaurants all across the country.  BlendAbout works with these restaurants to make reservations for their customers.  Any businesses who want to integrate BlendAbout into their operations should make sure they have good business IT support first to make sure everything works smoothly.

Spivak worked as a marketing professional for over a decade before founding BlendAbout.  This cool person has held leadership positions in the marketing departments of companies like Pixsense and PlayPhone.  Spivak’s experience in growing buzz and building strong customer relations will be key as she tries to grow BlendAbout into a more widespread and popular service.
