Greetings!
I hope you had a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving holiday. Mine was
fabulous, and as usual, I ate too much! That kind of
"over-the-top" excess is not good. But, there's another type of
"over-the-top" indulging that is fabulous. Starting with this
newsletter, I'll be including "over-the-top", shameless
self-promotion, in a new section of this newsletter called "TA DA!
List".
Remember in the last newsletter I invited you to forget about
what DIDN'T get accomplished on your TO DO LIST, and to email
me what you DID accomplish on the "TA
DA! LIST". I was looking for SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION and I got
it!! Please check out the new
TA DA! section of the newsletter to see what ROCKSTARS we have in
Ladies Who Launch Chicago. I'll be featuring this every
newsletter, so please keep them coming! We want to celebrate your
new website, first client, media attention, and any other
accomplishment you're proud of!
I'm also excited that we have a brand new sponsor! ER Computing,
Inc. is a full-service PC repair company servicing the Chicagoland
area. If you need a virus/malware removed, a home wireless network
set up, a custom computer built or just plain maintenance/routine
repair, call Tom Rubin at
(708)
431-6640. And if you're a paid STRATA member, you
will receive a 20% discount off labor (not including parts) on your
first invoice and 10% off labor (not including parts) on subsequent
invoices! Remember...membership has its
privileges!
Finally, please be sure to check out events this month. We're
only having a few in December, but will be spending the month
gearing up for 2011. Register now at www.ladieswholaunch.com/chicago/events for
the December events!
As always, if you have any questions, or need anything from
me, don't hesitate to email me or call me at 678-696-1050.
To your entrepreneurial
success,

DECEMBER EVENTS ARE HOT!
Are you tired of the same old "networking"? Try our
