Entrepreneurial Conference: Growth, Sustainability and Strength
December 10, 2020
Strength is being resilient, courageous. Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming. As entrepreneurs we are resilient. We are strong. We are courageous. In March of 2020 Covid-19 wreaked havoc on our businesses. Our spirits have been rattled, but in true entrepreneur fashion we continue to persevere in order to hold onto our businesses, we are adjusting, we are pivoting.
Join us for a day of entrepreneurial leadership and collaboration with entrepreneurs from a variety of industries as we discuss ways to navigate, survive and thrive through Covid-19 and beyond.

How To Not Suck at Virtual Networking
With Ashley Owens
Networking is such a personal activity, it is not a one size fits all practice. Most people get bogged down in the details and miss out on the foundation of how to build and retain an effective network. At the end of the day, no one cares WHAT you do, but do you know them, like them or trust them? Establishing and growing meaningful relationships is undeniably critical to long-term success and during the current worldwide pandemic when networking has shifted from onsite to fully online, Ashley reveals how to connect “face-to-face” in our new normal.
By attending this session you will learn how to:
- Nurture your current business relationships
- Create a tactical, individualized approach
- Save time by recognizing the best strategic partners
- Effectively engage contacts using email, messaging, social media, and other digital tools
- Craft an authentic, powerful, professional networking process
Don’t miss out on this one of a kind event!
Get ahead of the game. Virtual conferences are becoming the norm. Don’t be left behind waiting for things to return to normal.
