 Opportunity Knocks
Hooray for the Champions
Catherine Lang-Cline, Owner
"Champions are wonderful at opening doors and turning cold leads into warm ones. You can meet champions all sorts of ways, such as at networking events, at association meetings or though existing relationships with current clients or long-time vendors. If someone is happy with your work or thinks well of you, it's easy for them to recommend you to those they meet seeking your product or service."

Raise Your Game
Engagement: Mentors Help Creative Professionals Grow
Kristen Harris, Owner
"For creative people having mentors is especially important. Many of the skills and nuances of our work is not easily learned in a classroom or from a book. It's often learning-by-doing or, more specifically, learning-by-watching-someone-else."
