No, I joined my local state CPA society and served as officer for a while. I've gotten 2 jobs from those connections even years later.

There are groups that will open up the client potential but be careful because they will want referrals in return. One group I considered wanted 3 referrals a month and I didn't really know their business.

I recommend joining volunteer groups you believe in. I started volunteering at the hospital and kept turning people away.
