November 3 2021 - Member Meeting - Network Like a Boss

LOCATION:

Holiday Inn, 5:30pm

Yes, some people may seem like naturals when it comes to networking, but most of us rely on some proven strategies to help us feel less intimidated by those networking events. You will learn how to start and keep conversations going along with what needs to be in your ‘elevator pitch’ to engage your ideal client.

Whether you feel like you need a tune-up on your networking skills after 18 months of social isolation, you are already fairly comfortable, or even if you never liked networking situations in the first place, this interactive workshop will leave you with a solid system to conquer the business meeting or cocktail party with confidence!
