Connecting

Let’s “Connect”!
The past few years I have been leading a networking group for women entrepreneurs and in doing so have arranged meetings, networking events and seminars. One of the tag lines I often have used in my correspondence has been “Connect and be inspired!”. The word “connect” comes up often in my vocabulary and I don’t take it lightly. Anyone can have a meeting, pass on a business card and leave with a list of prospects but I think it is important that we do not forget the human element of real authentic connections. We are not just names on a list and no one comes to an event just to be sold to. Do you?

Behind the Harmac. A sign or just bad timing?
I recently found myself siting in traffic as often do; this time stuck behind two trucks in both lanes in front of me with literally no where to go. I couldn't pass, I was no where near an exit so all I could do was sit in my car, releasing and pushing the brake every few seconds in frustration, stressed as I was going to be late for a meeting.

So You Think You Can't Sell?
You are trying to get your kid to eat her vegetables. You are telling someone about the movie you saw last night. You are praising someone else's work. You asked your friend for a favour. You are trying to convince yourself that today's a good day to start your diet. What do these scenarios have in common? You guessed it. You are actively trying to sell someone or something.
Lessons From A "Coach" Purse
I've never really been into brand names....really. I don't know what it is. Perhaps because of my upbringing, having siblings and parents who weren't brand savvy or being taught to be practical with purchases but I just never thought to spend on luxury items for myself. Nevertheless, on my 40th birthday as my girlfriends reached under the table as we were finishing dinner at a very rare (at least for me!) girls night out, I recognized the bag - the stripes, the golden embossed lettering ... and WOW, I was excited. Something of value for me.
Will You Go There?
Do you wonder what separates those who succeed from those who don't? I've always loved Suzanne Evans' " tell it like it is" approach and when I came across her post on this, I couldn't wait to share.
Putting Yourself "Out There" in Your Business - How to Create Your Own Luck in Business
It seems I have been very "lucky" these days, or at least some will say that. I have received referrals out of the blue, donations of prizes, I have won contests, received gifts and people have given up a lot of free time out of their busy schedules to mentor me and give me advice. For this I am very grateful.
