If you are a small business owner/operator, networking is one of the most important facets of developing your customer base. Building alliances with friends, customers, vendors, and business associates is key to establishing a broad range of contacts that leads to sales growth.

 

A key part of networking is the “elevator pitch,” a brief way to professionally introduce yourself and your business.
 

In this new webinar, you will learn how to create and deliver a concise pitch for your products/services, build your network, and manage your networking.

Topics include:

· Benefits of Networking

· Networking tips & techniques

· Marketing – internet and social media

· Clearly describe your business in one or two sentences

· Engaging and following up
