Workshop Info
S. O. S.
Join us for an exciting new aspect to our TGIF Coffees - S.O.S. - Sharpen Our Skills. S.O.S. is a mini-workshop conducted at our TGIF Coffees to help our membership and their guests brush up on their networking skills.
Each month we will feature a specific skill - we will provide some quick and easy guides to help you perfect your introduction, listening skills, 30 sec/60 sec sales pitch, as well as helping you to answer the question, "what do you do?" so that you can get a the prospect, the follow-up call or referral. Check back each month for worksheets on each topic. Then practice...have a one-on-one, call another member and apply what you learned at our pre-lunch networking time. Isn't it time we "Sharpened Our Skills?"
