Is It Worth My Time?

I attend a lot of meetings, events and programs and I always rate them the same way – was it worth my time? We are all busy people, trying to cram one more thing into each day and cross another thing off our lists. Freeing up hours to spend listening, learning, meeting and greeting is no longer an easy feat. And it always comes back to “is it worth my time?”

NEW END promises to bring a great return on investment. Although new to the area and to the event, NEW END’s line up has me already in high gear. I have cleared my calendar and my cell phone will be on silent mode. I’m a huge fan of Steven Little (visit his website at www.stevenslittle.com for a sneak preview) and always gain great insight into business growth from his presentations. NEW END also takes networking to a whole new level, getting past the exchange of business cards and introductions into actual dialogue where plans and resources can be shared. And this year’s “Taste of Entrepreneurship” promises a fun afternoon. Whether you’re just starting out or looking at that next step, trust me, NEW END will be worth your time!
