Hi, Chamber members!!
 
In between our quarterly mailed newsletters, we like to keep our members updated on the monthly events.

Fire up the palm pilots, open Outlook or take out your planner and mark down these dates. These events are great opportunities to network, build relationships, thus building your business. Join us! If you know someone who could benefit from our organization, please feel free to forward this to them.

 November Luncheon Helps You Accelerate YOUR Networking 
_______________________________________ 
Do you want to meet just one or two people at an event, or do you strive to build your business contacts? What are you willing to do to meet more of them?
 
The November 11th "Accelerated Networking" Luncheon will be a fast-paced, power-packed session of 1) learning about networking, 2) discover the secret to a 30 second infomercial and 3) putting the pedal to the metal and test-driving it right away.
 
Speaker, Tom Gosche of The Business Strategist, will steer us in the right direction and we will be networking in a speed-dating-style interaction.
 
Sound interesting? I think you'll find it interesting AND valuable. You will meet HALF of the room, one-on-one, to tell them about you and your business, but pay attention to the speaker so you can do it in 30 seconds.
 
Arrive before 11:15am at the Holiday Inn/Carol Stream because we will begin at 11:30. Ladies and gentlemen...start your engines!
 
 RSVP todayfor this networking opportunity!
 
"Polka Dot Progressive"
