HELLO RSFBPW Guests and Ladies!
Hello Ladies of RSFbpw and Hello March!
I recently read a quote that said "Gratitude helps you see what is there, instead of what isn't." I was thinking about how gratitude is a choice we make everyday and how strongly it can impact both our personal and professional lives. In fact, it is among the top traits of the most successful people in the world.
When you practice gratitude you can see others' success as an opportunity instead of being discouraged or deterred by the success of your competition. The "If she can do it, I can do it" mentality will win over "Why her, why not me?" every time.
I am so grateful to be able to share ideas and experiences over lunch each month with so many ultra successful women. Thank you all for continuing to show up for one another time and time again. I look forward to seeing your smiling faces at our next meeting on March 16th at the Lomas Santa Fe Club.
It is so exciting to watch our group grow. Remember we allow up to 3 members per profession, so invite a guest and help spread the love and support that RSFbpw offers!

Please remember to update your information whenever it changes, including new photos and logos. You are invited to participate in the monthly drawing for members only by bringing and talking about your donation during the drawing portion of our meeting. You can place your items for sale on 1/2 of a table located in the back of the room before and after our monthly meetings, from January through October. This is offered to our members at no charge and your are encouraged to display your wares. You should arrive around 10:30 a.m. to secure your half-table. You can share a 20 second commercial during our meetings. Members are welcome to speak at our member's showcase meetings (held twice per year). Some restrictions apply, so please reach ouot to our Programs Director for details. You can post announcements for your products, services or events on our Facebook Business Page and participate in our LinkedIn Group page.
Monthly speakers are the only ones allowed to place their information on the luncheon tables during our meetings.

Be sure to post your announcement on our Facebook Business Page. Thank you.

Shout-Outs and Testimonials | |
We may run out of time at our meetings to share our testimonials for each other's services, products, and community announcements. We encourage you to write your praise and mail an email or note to the member who you want to applaud. Send your friends a special email sharing your testimonial about the member you are highlighting. Post your Shout-Out on our RSFBPW Facebook page and on your own FB page.
We offer Shout-outs and testimonial time at the end of many of our meetings, however it depends on the time left after our speaker has concluded their presentation. We do not offer testimonial time at our November and December meetings because of the length of the program. We encourage you to pass out your information, flyers, handouts and community announcements during the open networking time which is between 11:15 a.m. and 11:45 a.m.
You may also want to use your 20 second commercial time during the meeting to share your business event or announcement with the group and invite interested members to pick up a flyer with more details in the back of the room. Thanks for cheerfully working with us!

A Gentle Reminder about Spamming RSFbpw Members | |
Members and visitors must individually ask each member for permission to place them on any form of mass communication-email blasts, newsletter lists, U.S. Mail lists or group texts. Without each member's individual permission, we consider this type of communication to be an act of spamming. To build long-term relationships with members please write personal notes and emails first and after developing rapport, ask these members only for permission to place them on your mailing list. Thank you for your cooperation. | |
