I hope everyone is staying cool in this extreme heat and humidity we have going on!

Don't forget, even though it is summer business doesn't stop! It is as important as always to get out there and network.

Please take a look at the flyer for my July 28 Networking Workshop - normally Beyond Networking is a woman's group, however for the summer months the workshops are open to men. So don't be shy, come on out & join us to talk and learn about the business start up and strategies for surviving the first three years! Hope to see you there.
