BE CONNECTED TO EFFECTIVE NETWORKING:

A Guided Networking Experience

 

 

You know you need to network so you can build your business, find your next opportunity, or develop new clients and prospects. However, you are not as effective as you'd like to be, and the experience is not as productive as it needs to be. BE CONNECTED to Effective Networking resolves all of your uncertainty and answer all of your questions in a fun, stimulating and eye-opening way. Combining a highly interactive skill-building presentation with networking practice, BE CONNECTED shows you how to:

 

· Raise your networking skills to the next level of productivity & effectiveness

· Network with ANYONE - ANYWHERE

· Forge valuable new professional relationships

 

Quotes from the most recent 'BE CONNECTED' workshop:

 

"Great presentation- practical ideas that I can actually implement."


"I already feel more confident."


 

"Really helped me look at networking from a different perspective- takes the

dread out of it!"


"Fabulous, allowed me to see networking in a totally different light. Before I felt like I was doing something wrong, and now I see myself networking."


"Dean and Pete are awesome and engaging and create memorable ways to make networking a breeze. My fear of networking just went poof, I particularly love the tool of appreciation."
