Description

Female entrepreneurs & business leaders of the East Valley, join us for natural networking with a featured vendor, venue and host! Hi there, I'm Mary! Thanks for considering attending the East Valley Leading Ladies Networking Group. Don't worry, if you're "the new kid on the block" you're in good company! This event is the LAUNCH of Leading Ladies in Arizona's East Valley. For the first time, Leading Ladies is going global, and it's starting right here in Arizona! My friend, Kayla Ajini founded Leading Ladies in Southwest Florida after a cross-country move with the hopes that 10 ladies would show up. To her surprise, the first event sold out, and it's been thriving since! As I saw what Kayla was doing in SWFL, I knew that we needed that same kind of community here. I wanted to be able to connect with other Leading Ladies... you know the kind right? Business owners or leaders in their industries that inspire you, encourage you, and support you as you work hard to foster growth! I was tired of the old fashioned networking. The good 'ol boys club or the "singles mingles" weren't cutting it. I wanted something that would be natural, fun, and a low time commitment/cost. If you're trying to decide if this could be a fit for you, here's what you should know! We believe: Celebrate the wins of others! We grow in business by lifting other Leading Ladies up! Mic Drop, am I right?"Fun" and "Income Generating" are not enemies with one another. We can have really fun events that also leads to powerful collaborations, quality referrals, and increases a businesses profitability.There's power in being YOU! Your unique qualities are your secret sauce.Our community has a lot to offer. Featuring different vendors, venues, and hosts gives us a wonderful overview of what skills, talents and services are available within our network.Natural networking leads to quality connections. The old way of standing for a 20 second commercial each week with an obscure "ask" is just that, passé!1 quality event a month is better than weekly meetings. Business owners and leaders are on a time crunch.1 event/month that leads to valuable 1:1 interactions over the next 3-4 weeks is a better process than weekly meetings with high annual fees.Our process? We highlight featured vendors, venues and hosts which change every event to give these Leading Ladies an opportunity to highlight their business! It's fun for us to experience new locations and activities and it keeps things exciting each month. January 12, 2021 Event Details: What does it mean to Build Bridges & Open Doors?
