Network In Action is Expanding its Support for the Austin Business Community

Heinzelman and Kessel currently are the group leaders of six NIA groups. The duo has plans to build out a total of 15 NIA groups in greater Austin with a goal to develop all of Central Texas. This will be in addition to the three NIA groups Christina Bell is the owner of in the Austin community.

“I have been involved in networking groups for the better part of a decade, but I’ve always felt like I wanted more from them,” said Heinzelman. “The technology was lacking and the value with the price of membership never seemed like it was there either. After seeing how NIA groups operate, it was clear it was the answer to everything that was missing for me. NIA gave me the opportunity to be a builder and grower as well as make me feel like I am helping other business owners succeed.”

Giving rise to business leaders, Heinzelman and Kessel will continue assisting a dynamic group of local business owners and professionals in growing their network through monthly 90-minute meetings with set agendas each month to ensure each meeting is interactive and engaging for business owners.

“When I first started networking, I quickly realized that I had a knack for it,” added Kessel. “It comes with my genuine want to help others build their businesses. I’ve had the chance to run other networking groups and be in positions of leadership, so starting this journey with NIA felt like the natural next step for me.”

Taking a modern approach to networking, NIA’s revolutionary internal website and smartphone app allows members to pass and track referrals with ease, start discussions with other members, post status updates and more. The app helps to streamline the referral process for NIA members by giving them the ability to connect in real-time. It is also the only networking organization offering a guaranteed ROI through a simple calculation method based off a members’ commitment to attending monthly meetings and passing referrals.

“Charles and Justin have already made a significant impact on the Austin business community with the NIA groups they currently lead,” said Scott Talley, founder and CEO of Network In Action. “We’re excited to have them take charge on continuing to grow NIA’s presence in Austin and Texas at large.”

Established in 2015 by founder and CEO Scott Talley, Network In Action (NIA) is one of the only networking organizations that offers professionally-run, monthly meetings focused on using a combination of technology and face-to-face networking. With more than 90 NIA groups across the country, NIA is changing what it means to network through its commitment to building real relationships and helping businesses grow through its exclusive referral network.
