If you’re a woman in business, you need to attend the Business Women’s Forum next Tuesday, 9/29/09 in Hartford, CT.

Why the reference to “big dogs?” No, it’s not a pet show, nor a disparaging remark about unattractive people. Rather, it is an inspiration from my networking friend, Janice who mentioned to me that she needs to kick up her networking efforts and start “hanging out with the big dogs.” Those were her words…and I loved them. I immediately told her that she MUST attend next week’s Business Women’s Forum because it attracts over a thousand high caliber business and professional women – the kind of women that could help accelerate her business and achieve her ambitions.

If you want or need to “hang out with the big dogs” or know women that need to step up their networking game, then please help me get the word out about next Tuesday’s BWF conference. It is the place to be to create powerful new opportunities for your career, your business and maybe even your life! Spread the word…and SHOW UP! There’s still time to Register for the conference!
