Presidents Message

Hello Winning Ladies,


The competitive spirit is alive and well in our WINS members! This was proven at our recent offsite meeting. 21 members and guests enjoyed an evening of socializing, dining and playing Left, Right,

Center. It was so much fun meeting and greeting, but the excitement which occurred when players lost and regained their money was amazing. Laughter and cheering were the name of the game as the

remaining players rolled to see who would ultimately come out on top. There were two rounds played and so, two lucky winners took home an additional bonus.


Thank you again to Amy Corneau for opening up her home and to my terrific WINS board for their help in making this a successful event.


“You will get all you want in life, if you help enough other

people get what they want.”



Warm regards,

Jan

Marketing Formula!

The 3 Essential Keys to Converting Your Ideal Clients

We network, we market, we post on social media — often with little to show for it. What’s wrong? We’re not writing or speaking in a way that captures the immediate attention and interest of our audience. Instead of captivating and compelling, we end up muddy and ‘unhearable.” And people don’t buy.

But it doesn’t have to be this way!

You CAN become utterly fascinating to your perfect right clients, and convert them on the spot.

Debra will teach you the simple 3-step formula to make that happen.

Bio:


Debra Lindegren began speaking in public at age 16 when she stood before her local school board and took them to task for shortening the school week from 5 days to 4. It worked!

She has been fascinated by the ability to influence people for over 35 years. In 2002 she founded her company Authentically Speaking to train executives and business owners on

how to use speaking to showcase their credibility, increase their influence

and create buzz for their business. As a speaker she has presented dozens

of Keynotes and Workshops across

the U.S., Canada, Colombia, Mexico,

and Australia, and has critiqued

hundreds more.

More recently she has become highly skilled in the art of messaging

and marketing. 





Would you like to promote

your business a little

bit more?

Board Member Spotlight

Ana Asatouri


Going to school was challenging because English was my third language. After graduating from USC with a BA in Sociology and Minor in Human Resource Management, my journey to entrepreneurship started and I kind of fell into this appliance repair industry. At the same time, I met my husband, Chris and we got married. Chris worked in the appliance repair industry for companies such as Sears and Best Buy Geek Squad. In the year 2012, we started our own company. I manage all the office aspects of the business and Chris provides the service. We have three beautiful children Lucy 11, Michael 7 and Leonardo 5. We worked very hard towards our American Dream and became homeowners in the beautiful City of Simi Valley in the year 2015. We enjoy giving back to our community and helping our customers with all their appliance repair needs.



Happy Birthday to our June Birthday Babes

~ Paula Miller ~



Hello, I am thrilled to share a little about myself with this amazing group of successful professionals.

 I began my career with State Farm in 1992 and am so pleased to have my Agency of 24 years in Simi Valley. As you all are experiencing or have heard, the Insurance industry in California is tricky and complex, especially of late. I guess, we could say that about almost all industries in California. I am so grateful to own a company that has a mission reliant on building a direct Client Agent relationship. What I most value in my Agency, is the trust my clients have in me and my team. That trust is built on an unwavering commitment to transparency, knowledge, exceptional service and personalized recommendations. My “extended family” of clients deserve the best and my team and I work diligently to deliver just that by offering top quality insurance products and financial services. Daily we all strive to help the client manage the risks of daily life, plan for the unexpected and achieve their financial dreams. I offer a huge Thanks to each of you for being an example of excellence to me! Please know I am always available to chat; help bring clarity to all that is Insurance and help you achieve your goals with a customized Risk Portfolio.
