What Is Strictly Business?
As the leading media company in the Historic Triangle, our commitment is to bring people together. We do this every day, online at WYDaily.com and 30offLocal.com and on-air at 92.3FM and 107.9FM The Tide. Strictly Business is our way of making our virtual community a literal one. We gather local newsmakers and consumers who have a common commitment to the community through a FREE networking event. Strictly Business is a bi-annual experience hosted every April and October, in partnership with CultureFix. Everyone is welcome!
Strictly Free. Strictly Fun. Strictly Business

What they are saying….
“The well-organized events are a great opportunity to meet and network with a wide variety of representatives from numerous fields, all while enjoying great food and drink supplied by local vendors. They serve as a great reminder of Williamsburg’s extensive and vibrant business community!”
– Vicki Smith, The Optimal Service Group
“I had a fantastic time networking at this Strictly Business event. I was able to re-connect with Waypoint Seafood & Grill, Chris Souder, who would like to come back on board as one of our Community of Faith Mission, Warm Up Williamsburg Soup Sale Fundraiser soup donors. All proceeds from this fundraiser go towards sheltering the homeless in the Greater Williamsburg Area during the coldest winter months. I am so excited that I was able to speak with Chris at this Strictly Business event.”
-Victoria M. McWhorter, Director of Special Events and Hospitality, Community of Faith Mission
