Networking is an important aspect of running a business, but finding times and places where one has an easy chance to do so without coming off as pushy or awkward isn’t an easy task.  Cool person in technology Nick Martin believes business professionals are making a big mistake by ignoring one particular place that could be a proverbial gold mine for networking: airplanes.  On most flights, professionals sit quietly or sleep. Some might read, but the hours spent on flights between major cities are usually time idly spent.  Martin thinks these hours are a prime opportunity to develop mutually beneficial business relationships with other professionals and build a list of contacts.  That’s why Martin founded Planely, a startup that tries to facilitate professional networking on flights all over the world.  With Planely, professionals can find out what other people they will be traveling with on their next flight.  Martin’s web app allows users to make connections pre-flight so businesspeople can plan to meet up at the airport or on the plane in order to start discussion and conversation.  If someone has trouble connecting to Planely on the web, there is home tech support available at all times. 

Martin’s web platform also finds other ways for people to connect while traveling.  Users can make plans not only to meet on a plane, but also to meet at connecting airports, before a flight, or during a long cab ride to a hotel.  Martin wants professionals to utilize travel time and become more productive in their networking thanks to Planely.  Planely currently makes connections by using both Facebook and LinkedIn to locate businesspeople that may want to connect with each other.  Anyone who can’t connect their social networking accounts to Planely should get service from a computer support company.

Martin’s concept for Planely came from his own experience as a business professional.  Martin has spent fifteen years in the business world and had many years to consider solutions for professional networking. His past positions include being a project manager at three different companies and acting as a business consultant for 3Dub Ltd.  Martin also currently holds a position as VP of marketing for Nortlander Ski tours while also acting as CEO of Planely.  This extensive business experience helps Martin to use Planely to find better ways for professionals connect while traveling.
