President's Message

Dear RSFBPW Ladies, Esteemed Guests:

Hello my friends, December is here, and I am feeling confident in my new goals for the year as we draw near to the end of 2025. My wish in the New Year is that you all find yourselves healthy, happy, and accomplishing all that you've set out for yourselves and your business.

I've found setting my goals in writing to be a powerful accountability tool, and I invite you all to explore the following examples of goal-setting worksheets in the event you find them useful to your business next year.

The Way Forward Guide

I appreciate each of you so much and am proud to be part of such an amazing group of Boss Babe Women! I truly hope you are kind to yourself all of the time, especially throughout this Holiday Season. Happy Holidays to you all, I look forward to seeing you at our December meeting!

Warmly,

Laine Klug

Shout-Outs and Testimonials

Time permitting, we end each meeting (January through October) with the opportunity to give shout outs and announcements; however, we always encourage you to send your friends a special email sharing your testimonial about the member you are highlighting.

Beware of Phishing Scams

Don't Take the Bait!

Please be aware that phishing scams are becoming more aggressive and elaborate. Members recently notified us that scammers are sending emails posing as Board Members to request money or information from members. These people comb business networking websites to get information and try to pose as members. RSFBPW will never solicit funds individually from members. The only fees associated with our association have a known protocol in place. Please block and report any suspicious activity right away. Thank you for helping to keep our members safe.

How to Recognize and Avoid Phishing Scams

Gentle Reminders

RSFBPW has an Anti-Spam Policy.

RSFBPW requires Business Attire and Etiquette at all meetings.
