You Are Invited...
It's time to reserve your space at this exciting networking event in Tampa. I welcome you to join me and up to 25 outstanding women to a casual yet effective in-home event on October 21 at 7pm. It's the perfect setting for everyone to do more than hand out a business card...you'll find yourself conversing, connecting, and really networking with a group of like-minded women.
The event is called The Heart Link Network™ and you'll enjoy a fun atmosphere with high caliber women who are passionate about their businesses. You can attend this event for $20, or "come LINKED" (with a new-to-the-network friend) and it's $30 for the two of you!
We are a non-membership group, meaning you can come when it works for you and you pay as you go. This also means that each month there will be an interesting mix of people who have attended before and those who have not.
Please come with your business cards, brochures, flyers, or any samples that will showcase your business. After our informal networking dinner, we will come together and each of you will have three minutes to share the highlights of your offerings. Remember that women network differently than men...we are not together to grab business cards and go home...we want to connect, learn, share and grow...and ultimately help each other get the business we deserve! Referrals come naturally for us, so remember to pass on what you learn to others you know!
Each month, I will feature one non-profit group, and through a raffle, we will donate collected funds to that group. In Septemer, we were able to send $120 to Florida Boxer Rescue, whose mission is to provide foster homes and medical care to abandoned and abused Boxers, as well as to educate the public about specifics to the breed, so people can make educated pet adoption decisions. Thank you everyone for your generous donations and your raffle ticket purchases! And as a reminder, there is a vendor opportunity on 10/25, Boxer Bash, that Debi mentioned briefly. Visit http://www.flbr.org/calendar.html for more information. For October, we welcome Patty Steinert with Lost Angels Animal Rescue. This is a Tampa-based non-profit whose mission is to find responsible loving homes for dogs of all breeds who have ended up in shelters. Lost Angels depends on a small but dedicated staff to care for over 600 animals that come to them annually. If as an attendee, you would like to donate to the raffle, please let me know! This could be a product, service, or gift certificate related to your business, or anything else that you might like to share and that someone else might love to win. This was a fun part of the event and is a wonderful way to showcase yourself as you ultimately contribute to our non-profit group.
If you are a food or cooking products-based vendor and would like to provide any or all of the dinner for this month's event, please contact me. What better way to show off your products than to let us all taste-test them?
