Were you a sharpie in November? If not, get ready for 2020!

This month Jackie B. Peterson showed us how to work smarter not harder. Her presentation ”Charging What You Are Worth” reflected on focusing your time and energy.

 If you find yourself so busy you can’t wedge in our monthly Association of Home Businesses meeting, YOU’LL DEFINITELY want to put us on your calendar with a SHARPIE and plan to attend a meeting like the November 21 meeting. You are almost GUARANTEED to rethink your daily routine and strategy.

You’ll be prepared to propel your business forward over the coming year after attending our monthly meetings. This was our last meeting of 2019 that ended on a high note.

Next year, meet folks like Jackie B. Peterson. Jackie is a renowned author and creator of a solo entrepreneur’s guide to success, Better Smarter Richer and her recently launched online program Best Beginnings, Your Start-Up Done Right.

She is a teacher, coach, consultant, writer, a CPA and a long time entrepreneur. Her focus is small business and entrepreneurship, most specifically solo entrepreneurship for those who are seeking the perfect job for themselves.  In addition to her independent consulting and small business coaching practice, Jackie currently works as a strategic adviser/instructor for the Small Business Development Center of Portland Community College.

Can you say DYNAMIC? Yes you can.
