Ladies, let’s talk business – and do lunch!

If you’re the type of woman who dreams of starting a business – but needs a nudge – we’re going to provide it. Next month, Microsoft Office Live Small Business is hitting the road to host a series of day-long Vision to Venture events focused on helping women like you start and grow a successful business.

 

We’ve assembled an impressive panel of small-business experts who promise some riveting, high-impact sessions. You’ll hear from:

 

·         Rich Sloan – Author and co-founder of the hugely popular StartupNation.com

·         Susan Wilson Solovic – Author, CEO and inspiring co-founder of SBTV.com

·         John Jantsch – Author and the ever-practical founder of Duct Tape Marketing

 

I’ll be there too, representing Office Live Small Business and sharing the great benefits of this FREE service from Microsoft.

 

There’s more, too: In each city, we’ll feature startup stories from women business owners. We’ve also penciled in plenty of time for networking, and yes, lunch, too.  All of our acclaimed authors will be available for book signings after the event. I truly think it’s going to be an event not to miss for any woman who’s ever thought twice about starting a business.  Here’s where we’ll be:

 

·         April 2 – St. Louis

·         April 15 – San Diego

·         April 22 – Miami

·         April 25 – Austin

·         May 9 – Seattle

 

Now I know that these five cities aren’t going to work for everyone. But we’ve already thought of that! In May, you’ll be able to watch a free, on-demand webcast from one of the live events. So even if I don’t get to meet you in person, at least you’ll get all the expert advice and inspiration – and that nudge you need too.

 

Since we know there are a lot of women starting businesses, we expect these events to fill up fast. So my advice is to learn more and register now.

  

Hope to see you soon,

 

Karen Dayan

  

P.S. Did I mention we’re giving away some great prizes in each city? The registration page has more details.
