Accounting Social Network Launches

Fox Coaching Associates has created HubStreet, a social networking site designed to bring together accountants, lawyers and bankers, and foster referrals.

HubStreet members create professional profiles and interact with other professionals who are their target referral sources. HubStreet features both virtual and face-to-face networking events in which members will be able to meet up and learn more about how they can assist one another in their businesses and practices. A site coach and a community director help members participate.

“Let’s face it – it’s not what you know, but who you know,” said Fox Coaching Associates CEO Nancy Fox. “Unlike most online and face-to-face networks, HubStreet takes the work out of networking for lawyers, accountants and lenders by bringing them together with the right quality connections — professionals and experts that are relevant to their business.”

Users can post articles, presentations or materials for classes they are leading on the site; register for courses at HubStreet University; receive personalized guidance from HubStreet’s career coach; learn about and attend live events in their geographic business area; participate in business forum discussions and share personal interests in the HubStreet Café; and learn about new career opportunities by building a high-quality network.

HubStreet is also home to the Metro Roundtable, which was created to foster relationships and new referral opportunities between accomplished trusted advisors. The Metro Roundtable features monthly gatherings at various venues, with speaker presentations and professional networking.
