I'm the owner of a startup, how do I grow my network?

I would like to know what other online communities are out there for people like me.

uh.. a gofundme and talk it up.. get supporters and then hire folks and tell them what you'll pay them...
then you may need to talk to a lawyer... if you can friend one that would work wonders.
and make sure you have situational setups in case it fails.
and a bank where you can put your 'subsidies'.
good PR or the 'word of mouth'.
and a place where some folks can 'shack up' while they're working with you.
if you can do that.

Go slowly. Provide something that isn't just momentary. The internet is fickle. Good luck!

@Augusta: Ever seen the Bill Hicks monologue? :)

I use LinkedIn. What sort of startup? Mine is IT related.

@Augusta: The groups are dead. Instead, I invite as many people as possible to be a connection. The more connections you have the more shared connections you have with other people. I took my connections from 330 to 2400 in 1 month doing that. I simply invited people that had mutual connections with me even though I didn't know them. 90% of people accept.

We also have a company page and post articles. Again, the more connections you have the more people will read the articles.

I also put links back to my website in any LinkedIn articles. This is good for Search Engine Optimization, which improves your search rankings for your website.

@HoraceGreenley: Interesting, I was thinking of publishing on there too.

@Augusta: It's a good, inexpensive way to start.

I hate Linkedin too.
My niche is digital marketing, what is yours?
