Laura Jucha reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
If you've ever been to a networking group, you know it's hard to just show up where you don't know anyone. Carmenza went out of her way to make me feel welcome and introduce me to others. She really stood out among the several groups I went to and it is for that reason along with the fact that her meetings are well organized, everyone gets a chance to talk briefly about their business, she brings in interesting speakers that are relevant to small businesses and on top of that she is funny and truly cares about everyone. I'm really looking forward to connecting with others in the group and learning about everyone else's businesses! Such a great group of talented people.

Jason Adams reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
I highly recommend attending the San Diego Business Connectors events led by the passionate...and hilarious Carmenza David. I attended the SDBC breakfast networking event recently and met some incredible people. The atmosphere was light and fun, the guest speaker was great, and I took home some wonderful nuggets I can use in my own business. I even won a prize! I will be attending another event very soon, and even look forward to speaking at one in the near future. So, here is what you need to do. Find out when the next event is scheduled, and give it a try. Not only will you enjoy it, and find it worthwhile, I think you will return again and again. Hope to see you there...

Carmenza David is one of the most amazing, wonderful, fun and out going women in business that I have ever met. She is a burst of energy and is a brilliant business mind! I had the opportunity to speak at one of her morning breakfast networking events and was blown away by the high volume of people of value of which that I have met. I am sure many of these will turn into lifelong friends. And my friendship with Carmenza already has become something I cherish. If you are looking for a new networking event you owe it to yourself to check out SDBC! You will be glad you did!

San Diego Business Connectors is by far the most cohesive networking groups in San Diego. Carmenza has taken this group of individuals and created not only long lasting business relationships, but genuine relationships. This is not your average meet and see how many business cards you can pass out or collect. It’s building friendships. With a vast array of professional backgrounds you are surely going to connect with someone who speaks directly to your purpose.
I’m very fortunate to have found Carmenza and the SDBC. If you haven’t taken the time to join in on one of their powerful events I suggest you do!

Fantastic organization, dynamic leader, and wonderful group of people. I really love the energy of this group and the passion of Carmenza (the founder). She is the heart and soul of the organization and attracts equally passionate, smart, and fun members to the group. Informative breakfasts, yummy happy hours, and great relationships. Definitely worthwhile to become a member. I have already gotten so much out of it!

Carmenza is welcoming and has everyone smiling throughout the meeting. If you're looking to grow your business connections and be inspired to greatness, I highly suggest checking out this group!
Christine Gail reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
What an energetic, positive group of people! This is networking unlike anything else I've ever seen!! Carmenza brings a refreshing humor that helps break down barriers. She creates a fair platform for everyone to speak their voice and market their business. Every time I attend I feel lit up and I always make an important connection. I recommend SDBC for people who are looking to network with high caliber entrepreneurs who don't take themselves too seriously. At the end of the day, we just want to be seen as who we are not what we do. Carmenza creates an atmosphere that is real and refreshing while highlighting our strengths in business.
Lorna LePage Alexander reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
Great group of folks and I liked the relaxed “family-feel”. Some of these types of groups take themselves too seriously and I feel are just there to exchange business cards - I did not get that feeling here at all. A perfect mix of sustenance with a nice breakfast and an informative relaxed presentation mixed w fun shares. I’ll be back! Thank you Carmenza and so happy to meet new people who are passionate about what they do - all using their gifts

Carmenza, the group's leader and founder brings a level of energy that's tough to match! The meetings and happy hours are filled with energetic and likeable entrepreneurs who are passionate about their craft, and just as importantly, enjoyable to spend time with.

So grateful to Carmenza David and the San Diego Business Connectors! I have immensely enjoyed visiting and speaking on occasion at this warm, inviting and fun networking group, which all stems from Carmenza's infectious down-to-earth leadership. Last year, SDBC sponsored one of my workshops and it was a huge success! Carmenza is an excellent promoter and will fiercely support you in creating those connections that lead to business growth. Thank you, Carmenza!!
Nancy Shah reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
To be honest I am a bit of an introvert and really don't like networking groups very much, but this one is different. There is so much positive energy and support here! People are genuine and interested in each other instead of only getting their card into your hand. Carmenza is a master at connecting people with each other and with your business. She makes everyone feel so welcome. PLUS she is hilarious! Just come and see for yourself! The speakers she picks have been amazing so far too!

What I love about SDBC is the group's vibrant and playful energy. All its members are open, friendly, smart and curious. It's founder, Carmenza, is passionate and genuinely cares about helping people connect and create business. I look forward to attending more events and growing relationships through SDBC!
Debbie Love reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
When I walked into my first SDBC event last week, I was immediately greeted by Carmenza David. But Carmenza didn’t stop there, she went on to personally introduce me to just about everyone in the room and that was before the meeting even got started. The environment was cozy and comfortable which made being the ‘new kid’ quite easy. This was my first opportunity to speak with other local business owners and entrepreneurs who had already been where I am now. It was easy to see why folks love going to SDBC events. I plan to attend more events and making new friends and connections along the way. Thank you Carmenza for taking the time to make me feel at home and among friends.

Bella Verita reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
Walking into a networking meeting for the first time can be awkward and uncomfortable.
Not this group the moment I walked in I felt welcomed. The organizer Carmenza made it a point to introduce me to everyone in the room. She really wants people to know each other and collaborate with each other.
By the time I left this meeting, I felt like I knew everyone in the room.
I got 3 new leads just from one meeting. I will definitely be back.
Thank you for a great experience!

Davide Di Giorgio reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
I've visited a lot of different Networking Groups, and to put it simply, SDBC is THE BEST. The quality of the members is a direct reflection of the leadership and integrity that Carmenza David pours into this group. Not only do I love attending, I've met clients, friends, have referred, and been referred much more since I've been attending regularly. SDBC has increased my enjoyment of networking! I love going to the Happy Hour events for meeting great business owners and thought leaders in a casual setting, and the breakfasts for the informative talks! -- As long as SDBC is around, I will be too - come meet me there -- I'd love to connect you with all the other members and beyond!

Isabel David reviewed San Diego Business Connectors — 5 star
SDBC is Incredible! You got to experience one of the events to realize you are witnessing a networking than can not be compared to any other.. One of the main reasons is the fabulous energy and real care for others that her founder puts in place.
When you become a part of her network you will be ready to meet professional people, caring and ethical. SDBC was always a great source for good , long lasting connections for my dental business, and therefore it would be for any of you that want to grow your business ! I highly encourage you to be part of this professional network, you wont be disappointed!
