An Open Enrollment
4:30 - 5:30 pm
MetLife Home Loans
1700 Westlake Ave N #315 , Seattle , WA 98109

Learn why multitasking is not an effective productivity strategy. More importantly, learn how to focus on one task at a time, working free of distraction, so you can consistently get more of the important things done in less time. You'll be able to implement some new productive habits immediately so that you can work smarter, not harder and get results.
Presented by Debbie Rosemont of Simply Placed and Dani McDonough with MetLife Home Loans.

Testimonial
 
"Once again, one of our top referrers to our agency's website is the Chamber's website. What I find particularly notable: 
 
 
  
  • 100% of our visitors from the Chamber's site are new 
  • 6 page views per visitor on average, a much higher rate than the average of 2.4
  • Higher than average visit time
  • 0% bounce rate (in other words, they don't just hit the front page, go "oopies, wrong website", and leave right away). 
  •  
These stats are all better than the other membership organizations from whom we also get referrals. They're comparable to the ones we get from Facebook and Evite, which are most likely from friends of individuals who are already supporters."
