The people who run the rooms, keep the meetings sharp, and make sure new members actually get connected.
Owner & Connection Queen
Lisa is passionate about helping small businesses grow through meaningful relationships. After more than a decade of coaching, she stopped teaching the transactional playbook. What actually works, she found, is authentic connection, shared values, and people learning together.
That is why she built NIA Oregon. Running a business or leading at the top can get lonely, and the fix is not another room full of strangers. It is a peer group who know you, know your business, and genuinely want you to win.
Community Builder
No stiff elevator pitches on a timer. You build real connections with the same people month over month, the kind who know your business and want it to work. Networking meets mastermind, with a whole lot more heart.
True connection starts when it feels safe to share the wins and the struggles. The same trusted group every month means relationships go deep instead of staying surface level, so you know exactly who you are referring.
Engaging exercises that build trust and sharpen communication, turning a room of business owners into a group that genuinely shows up for each other, in the meeting and long after it.
Over a decade of coaching built in, not sold separately. Clarity on your goals, stronger leadership, and mastermind time with people who know what running a Rogue Valley business actually takes.
People refer the ones they know, like, and trust, and they go out of their way for people they genuinely care about. One business per category means you are never competing for the same lead.
Weekly breakfast meetings, mandatory attendance, and a stopwatch on your introduction. That is the model most business owners have tried, and it is the reason so many of them quit networking altogether.
NIA meets once a month. Meetings are professionally facilitated, so nobody is winging it. Coaching and team building are built into the agenda, not bolted on as an upsell. And because only one business per category is admitted, you are never sitting across the table from your closest competitor.
The result is a group that feels less like a lead exchange and more like a board of advisors who happen to send you business.
“NIA isn’t just another boring networking group or the same old referral path. It’s a community of people who genuinely care about you, your business, and your growth.”
Founder at Rogue Tech Pros
“Joining NIA has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my business. The meetings are not just another networking event, they’re engaging, meaningful, and full of real value. I genuinely trust the members, both to support me and to take great care of the people I refer.”
Owner at Rogue Organizer LLC
“I am so grateful for the genuine care, encouragement, referrals, relationships, and support I have received from this group. It goes far beyond networking. There is a real sense that we want to see each other succeed, both professionally and personally. My business would not be what it is today without Network in Action”
Founder at Rogue Roots Solutions
“This is not just another networking group! I walk away after each meeting with something to work on to better myself or my business. Sure things get uncomfortable when she asks us to be vulnerable in front of our peers, but that’s where true growth happens. Don’t let your pride get in the way of meeting amazing business owners, managers, and the like, come check it out and see for yourself!”
Owner at Midland Empire Insurance
“At first, I was hesitant to join a networking group for fear that I would be wasting time reintroducing myself each meeting instead of actually networking. This group is the opposite. I’ve made incredible long lasting friendships, and I love the casual atmosphere.”
Project Coordinator at ONI Media Group
“Network in Action is by far one of the most valuable decisions you can make for your business. Building relationships and a team that will continue to add value to your business and the way you view it.”
Service Manager at Kelly’s Automotive
Three groups across the Rogue Valley, each with its own personality. Same model, same standards, different table.
Josephine County owners who want a tight, local circle. Great fit if most of your work happens north of the valley.
Our largest group, drawing from Medford, Central Point, and Ashland. The widest mix of industries and referral paths.
Same NIA structure, with faith woven into how the group encourages and holds each other accountable.
Who it’s for: established small business owners in the Rogue Valley who are ready to show up consistently, refer generously, and be coachable. If you are looking for a place to drop cards and leave, this is not it.
Come visit a meeting before you commit to anything. Sit in, meet the group, and see whether it feels like the room you have been looking for.
Network In Action for the Rogue Valley. Monthly meetings built for real connection, honest support, and referrals that actually convert.
