We could all use a little inspiration to kick off the year and it’s a sure bet that you wouldn’t mind at least one great idea to grow your business, right?

Well, you might find as many as  10 of them when you attend an awesome event this Thursday the 24th, from 7:30am – 10:30am at the Mid-America Club (200 E. Randolph, 80th FL).

After all, it is called “ 10 Things You Need To Know To Grow Your Business in 2013 .”

My friends at Sales Results and Mustang List are sharing their new ideas and techniques for you to grow your business in the coming year and since it’s being presented by Steve Fretzin and John Rudnick, you can bet that the ideas among these two gents will be of both the online and offline (sales/networking) variety.

As an added bonus, this event sponsored by the American Club Association (ACA) combines not only these engaging speakers but also some great networking and a full breakfast. Just following the link below to register and I hope to see you there!

The conversation was going well. We felt like we were connecting at the same level. The prospect had gotten to know me and appeared to feel great about my understanding of his process, goals, etc. Then came the question. I’ve received it many times before. “Do you have any experience in our industry?” Years ago, […] The post “Do You Have Experience In Our Industry? No?

Big or small, traditionally focused or digitally focused, only one kind of agency will be left standing in the future: The nimble one.
