WHO:
These 1st Friday VIP Office Hours sessions are designed for anyone who is considering self-employment instead of a new job. We have had "experience rich" attendees (age 40+, 50+, 60+), as well as executives, managers, directors, and every job title level in a wide variety of industries attend these calls. The "VIP" stands for "very important person" to remind you that you are a valuable person who has knowledge, expertise, and passion to share with others.
WHAT:
A virtual "office hour" to provide you with inspiration, community, and to help provide you with LinkedIn and marketing tips to support your a possible path in self-employment. Bring your LinkedIn / self-employment start-up questions and share your success stories and tips with others. Free. Registration is required because spaces are limited. There is a maximum of 100 seats in each live Zoom session.
WHEN/WHERE:
This is a weekly office hour session on Zoom on the 1st Fridays each month. Every Zoom session will also be simulcast to YouTube and may also be converted into my podcast at a later date.
COST: Free
WHY:
These calls provide a place to network with like-minded professionals, get live access to me and "allstars" in my network who can answer questions and bounce ideas around. Plus, I love holding small group Zoom calls and resharing these insights via YouTube and podcasts.
