2009 is the year for the success of women in business in Atlantic & Cape May Counties. Ok, so maybe I made up that statistic, but it is the truth isn’t it? In our NJAWBO meetings you WILL get the chance to mingle with like-minded women, you WILL have the opportunity to speak about your business in a commercial format, our wonderful guest speakers WILL educate you and best of all you WILL have great food!
Recently, a new attendee e-mailed me and said, “Your group is so friendly to newcomers, I felt right at home.” This holds true for many of our first timers. We hear the same sentiment after every meeting. Our membership is constantly growing so why shouldn’t you be a part of something so great? Between our loyal members, the opportunities to become part of our leadership team, and the other great benefits I hope that you will make this part of your monthly calendar.
If you are looking for a relaxing yet business focused evening then this is the place to be. You will get to share your insight as well as gain insight on a variety of topics. Personally, I know that after each meeting I come home inspired, motivated, pumped up and ready to take on the world. I am confident that you will have the same feeling!
For these next few months, be on the look out for some excellent speakers on great topics such as Money & Taxes and Protecting Yourself & Your Business. Our board is working hard to make sure that we have expert speakers for each month in 2009 so you will be fully prepared and well educated on the different business decisions you will have to make now and in the future.
In addition to everything mentioned above, I am very involved in many organizations and am very knowledgeable at networking. I have come to realize that networking is not easy for everyone and most people want to network but either they don’t understand how or are too shy. My board and I will be there at every meeting and will act as “connectors” to help facilitate conversation between yourself and everyone else if needed. You will always have a friend at NJAWBO!
So please come out and join us at our events on the 3rd Tuesday of every month at the Greate Bay Country Club in Somers Point from 5:30-8:30pm.
