FREE NETWORKING WORKSHOP

Patti Rowlson, owner of PR Consulting Services joins The Unity Group’s Monthly Brew workshop series line-up on April 10th to share some of her favorite tips for ensuring networking success.

Face-to-face networking can be an important marketing tool by providing opportunities to develop mutually beneficial relationships and turn casual “connections” into valuable advocates...yet it’s reported that 80% of professionals are just not comfortable with networking!

It is free to attend this and any of the other Monthly Brew workshops which will also feature Telling Your Business Story on March 12, Protecting Your Business from Cyber Threats on May 14, and Time Management on June 13.

These workshops are held on the second week of every month from 8am until 9am at 110 Unity Street, Bellingham. 

For more information on upcoming workshop topics and instructions on how to register, please visit http://www.theunitygroup.com/monthlybrew.html.
