The Ins and Outs of Networking to Grow Your Business: An Interactive Seminar

Special Offer: Learn and practice networking skills, with a $5 discount for both you and a friend.

More structured than a networking mixer, more comfortable than speed networking, and more hands-on than your typical seminar, at this lively and fun event you’ll learn and apply the skills of a successful networker.  And, you’ll get to practice your technique first hand while having meaningful interactions with other freelancers.

Join Freelancers Union and networking expert Liz Lynch for this interactive learning event and you’ll leave knowing how to:

  • Help others remember you as a go-to resource
  • Ask for what you want without putting people off
  • Become a connector
  • Develop a clear elevator pitch
