Columbus Crafting Experiences: Interface Design Bootcamp

Join us for an afternoon of hands-on interface design work at our Columbus Crafting Experiences bootcamp. Whether you're looking to sharpen your design skills, get feedback on a project you're working on, or just spend time around other people who care about thoughtful interfaces, this is the place for it. We'll have a mix of structured exercises and open working time, so you can get the most out of it regardless of where you're at in your design journey. This bootcamp is for anyone interested in interface design—designers, developers, product folks, or just curious people who want to learn. You don't need to be an expert or have anything prepared ahead of time. We'll provide materials and guidance, and there will be experienced people around to answer questions and offer perspective. It's really more about showing up and doing the work together than anything else. If this sounds like your kind of thing, we'd love to have you there. Just head over and hit RSVP so we know roughly how many people to expect and can plan accordingly.

Let's get Creative!

Just in time for holiday gift giving - let's spark our creativity and gather at Worthington Candle Works for a hands-on sensory experience. We will have options to create a custom-scented candle, body scrub, soap, reed diffuser, lotion or room spray. We can all choose our own product to make and take home with us that day. Please note that candles require a 2-hour set time, which is a perfect time to head to lunch at Dewey's Pizza, which is only a 100 foot walk from Worthington Candle Works. The pricing is as follows: all items other than candles are $28; candles are $25-$50, depending on size

Judgment in the Fog: Making Better Product Decisions in the Age of AI

**The Product Skills AI Can't Replace** AI can synthesize research, analyze data, and prioritize work. But when everything feels important and there’s no clear right answer, how do you decide what matters most? Join **ProductTank Columbus** and **Mike Belsito, Head of Product Evangelism at Pendo and Mind the Product**, to explore three practical habits for cutting through the noise, uncovering the real problem behind stakeholder requests, and prioritizing work that makes the greatest impact. **AI can help you process more information. Great product judgment helps you know what to do with it.** Doors open at **5:30 PM**, and the talk begins at **6:00 PM**, followed by Q&A and time to connect. Food and drinks will be provided by ZoCo, our generous host. Parking is available directly behind ZoCo and in the lot across the street. \*Towing will not be enforced in the paid lot on the day of the event.

Why Your Best 2026 Deal Might be a CONDO + What Will it Reall Rent for?

**[IMPORTANT: RSVPing here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To do that, you need to register at COREERocks.com.]** **How much is your vacant rental REALLY costing you?** Let's say you're asking $1,800 a month. But the market will only pay $1,650. You hold out for two months, hoping to get your price. That's $3,600 in lost rent. And even if you eventually get the extra $150 a month, it'll take TWO YEARS to make up those two months of vacancy. That's why pricing rentals correctly is so important in today's slower, more competitive rental market. And that's just ONE of the topics we're tackling at our November 3rd COREE Central Ohio meeting. The other? **Why your best NEXT deal might be a CONDO.** Yeah, we know. HOA fees. Restrictions. Special assessments. But could those very things be keeping your competition away from some great opportunities? Here's what's happening: 🍽️ **5:00–6:00: Free Light Dinner and Networking** Meet investors, buyers, lenders, contractors, wholesalers, and potential partners who can help you build your business. 🏠 **6:00–7:00: What Will It REALLY Rent For?** Professional property manager Greg Will shows you how to research realistic market rents, comp properties correctly, price rentals in a slower market, and recognize when your asking rent is keeping your property vacant. 🤝 **7:00–7:30: The Deal Room** Members share deals, funding needs, resources, and requests. 🏢 **7:30–8:30: Why Your Best NEXT Deal Might Be a Condo** Investor Damien Michalosky, with 20+ years of creative deal-making experience, explores where condos can make sense, what HOA restrictions and financial problems to watch for, and how to decide whether a particular condo is worth buying. Plus, we'll look at a condo he bought and one he passed on. **Members: FREE** **First-time guests: FREE** **Returning guests: $35—or join for $30 for one month.** **Tuesday\, November 3 \| 5:00–8:30 p\.m\. \| Columbus** Stop losing money waiting for rents the market won't pay. And stop overlooking properties that might be your next great deal. **Remember: Your Meetup RSVP does NOT reserve your seat. Go to COREERocks.com and register for the November 3rd meeting.**

Shut Up & Write!™ Easton Town Center

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!

Morning people unite!! 🐤 ☕ + 💬 @ Cup O Joe Coffee House
