Interactive Talks with Hand-outs

Build Community & Success
What are some of these essential ingredients for building your community, and in turn your business? Even if your business is new or you could use more clients or referrals, this is the meeting for you. Have you thought of what resources and partners you can find by getting to know your community? Build referral sources, customers and friends - not just by adding numbers to your online or offline networks. Turn your business contacts into mutually beneficial and trusted relationships. Ever meet someone and the first thing they give you is their card - whether you want it or not? Or when you have coffee with them, you get to listen all about their company - even though it's not really a fit for you? However, perhaps if they were interested in you, you could have been a resource for their clients but you never got past their “sales hustle”. Learn effective approaches and how not to turn off potential clients or partners.
