Greetings!
Welcome to my monthly ezine!! This is a huge step for my company. As I sit down to write this, our first ezine, it's interesting to reflect on where we've been. Miss Karen's Productions started out as just me writing infomercials for BNI members. I was still working a "day job" at the local title company and wondering if I would ever be able to "escape."
I left the day job a long time ago now. As I write this, I am delighted to say that not only do I have a "real live person" to answer the phones, but I have the perfect assistant to help me with the logistics of sending out emails, registration and paperwork (all of the things that drive Miss Karen crazy!) How cool is that??
My intention with this ezine is to keep you informed of upcoming events, keep you entertained with amusing stories and anecdotes and to keep you educated with networking tips and information that you can use in your daily lives. If you have anything you would like to see added, please drop us a line. I am always open to suggestions!
Take care, and until next month: Go out and make money by talking about what YOU do!
Miss Karen

| Networking Success Circle Launches in June
|
There's nothing more important than ongoing support, especially when you're doing something that may not be on your "top ten list" of fun and easy things to do. Maybe going to those chamber mixers and networking meetings is fun for you and maybe it isn't, BUT since you're reading this, most likely you realize that there is always more to learn.
The Networking Success Circle will support you in your networking training. Each month you'll be able to listen to two calls. The first one will involve group coaching with Miss Karen, where you'll get to ask specific questions about your own networking efforts, what to say in your infomercials or anything else pertaining to your word-of-mouth marketing campaign.
The second call each month will include major players in the networking game who will give you tips and techniques as only they can teach them. You'll get insider information on everything from networking etiquette and how personality styles affect your ability to get and retain clients to how to have that conversation with potential clients that makes them talk themselves into doing business with you.
Don't worry if you can't make a call! These calls will all be recorded. Anyone who subscribes to the networking circle will have access to each call live or the recorded version. Calls will be on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. Subscriptions are only $97 per month! Considering that you'd pay at least $200 an hour for Miss Karen's or any of our guests' time and you get two calls a month-THAT is a deal!
To subscribe or for more information about the Networking Success Circle, email Karen@misskarensproductions.com or call us at 925-407-4716.

| Secrets to Success 90-Minute Workshop
|
If you're like any of the other hundreds of people I've worked with, you don't feel as comfortable as you would like marketing your business at networking events - because you don't know what to say or how to say it.
Here's just a taste of what you'll learn:
· How to decide what words to use to get the results that you want
· A system to help you create an endless supply of "elevator speeches"
· 3 things you should never say when you're networking
· How to develop a word-of-mouth marketing game plan
· Networking tips for chamber events and open networking situations
When we are able to talk about what we do clearly and concisely, it allows us to focus on doing what we love to do-why we're in business in the first place. Often this means helping people improve their lives by regaining their health, achieving peace of mind or earning more money. That's why I'm so passionate about helping you learn to talk about your business-and make more money with your word-of-mouth marketing.

Here's what people are saying about Miss Karen's workshops:
"I attended the workshop . . . a week ago. I just want to express my sincere thanks.
Real estate is my second career, after spending 28 years in telecommunications.
I desperately needed help developing my 2-minute introduction speech if you will.
I followed your format, refined it and this week attended the San Ramon Chamber of Commerce 5-minute Networking event. I was successful and comfortable. I met some fabulous people and received wonderful feedback on my approach to real estate. I look forward to seeing you May 4th. I can't thank you enough."

"I found Miss Karen's Secrets to Success workshop very innovative, educational, energizing and entertaining. Yes, I walked away feeling very satisfied for the time spent, in that what I learned easily succeeded my hungering expectations for personal development. As an additional bonus, I met two individuals that are now gravitating into awesome power partner relationships."

"I just completed Karen Frank's workshop on networking and decided to jump on some of the ideas that I took from her expertise. She is fabulous by the way-I highly recommend you take one of her workshops at least once . . . I have been in her workshop twice and walked away with some new insights from my second time around."

Networking Tip
of the Month
|
|
Did you know that
in some cultures
writing on the back of someone's business card is considered bad manners? Some cultures believe that one's business card is an extension of one's self and writing on the back of the card indicates a lack of respect for that person.
So the next time you're tempted to write information on the back
of someone's card,
get permission first! |
