    Do You Know What Your Client Eats for Breakfast? — Gina Johnson

         Gina will speak on: "Do You Know What Your Ideal Client Eats for Breakfast?" This is arguably the most important part of your business. How do you know how to market your business or sell your product/service if you have no idea who you are selling it to? Developing your Client Avatar and Ideal Client will put you on the clear path to success. It will dive into exactly the type of person you would like to attract and how to get them knocking on your door (so to speak.) A workbook is included.

         Gina is a holistic business coach, intuitive, and connector extraordinaire, and a former chef. Gina takes a non-conventional approach to coaching by helping her clients to reignite the spark in their business. She specializes in working with entrepreneurs and start-ups to develop strategies to acquire new business, build momentum, and lead them to success while achieving work-life balance. In addition to business coaching, Gina offers "Intuitive Business Readings" and hosts self-care retreats for business owners.

    Gina lives on the CT shoreline and is the owner of Gina Johnson Co.

      * Walk-ins to the luncheon will be charged $25 (for all). Attendees may still register online, by 9am Tues. and pay $20 (for all) either online or at the door.

        * Remember to bring cash for the 50/50. Your fun ticket purchase at lunch on Wednesday, funds our Network operations, community and charitable engagement activities, and our scholarships! $1 each ticket, no limit.
