[LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER & MODERATOR BELOW]
Dear Members:
Our official sponsor for this event is SAAS44. Many thanks to the Executive Officers of SAA44 Inc., for generously supporting the event once again.
The best and the largest room which can accommodate 300 attendees easily, has been made available to us! Since we are already approaching close to 100 prospective attendees, this meeting may be broken into 4 groups for efficiency. We normally have a 45 second introduction per member, but we are going to be extremely strict in terms of the official 30 second elevator speech this time. Please practice and come well prepared. There will be a lot of people to meet & network with.
Timing is always of the essence, and we have a speaker who brings a topic that is related to our networking meetings! We are privileged to have an amazing speaker Robert J. Weese (photo attached) – who has approached me and volunteered to provide a lecture seminar on two key areas of face to face communications which are critical for anyone either trying to find a job or looking to be a better networker when they attend meetings. This is a MUST ATTEND for both the job seeker and the business owner.
Topics Covered:
Your 30 second elevator speech – What you need to say, how to say it and why you need to script and practice the speech so you can deliver it to anyone at anytime.
How to project your message in a seminar type setting – speak clearly and project your voice
Attending Toastmasters ™ if you are uncomfortable with public speaking and how it can advance your career.
Better Communication Tips on phone messages and voice mail for business owners and job seekers.
( PRESENTATION IS LIMITED TO 10 MINUTES )
