We're excited to announce a new SPC member benefit. You now have access to Treble, a national business networking platform. Treble makes it easy to connect with other members of the SPC community while building a strong network across the entire Treble platform. We now include a Treble premium subscription (valued at $29.99 a month) as part of your SPC membership!
When you activate your Treble premium membership, you'll be able to:
- Easily make, receive, and track introductions and referrals for new business opportunities
- Create specific requests, called “wishes” on the Treble platform, that enable the people in your network to help you meet your business goals
- Generate goodwill within your network by fulfilling others’ wishes and helping them achieve their business objectives
We'll be using a tool called "Meeting Manager" from Treble during our August 28th virtual meetup. Please contact us if you would like to start your free Treble membership.

We'll be resuming our virtual workshop schedule in September. The meetings will be held during the day and we'll post a recording if you can't attend live. Workshops are free for members and $15 for non-members.
After we finalize our schedule, you'll find the workshop descriptions and registration information on the SPC events page. We'll also e-mail you information on each workshop a few weeks before the event.
