The next FINE meeting is Thursday, June 18 at 9:00 A.M. in the McManus Room of the Westport Public
Library. The agenda for this meeting follows:
9:00 to 9:15 Networking For those of you who were at the last meeting where Ed Fitzgerald talked about social networking on the Web, consider that to have been the appetizer; this June 18th meeting will be the main course. Our speaker will be Jan Wallen, the author of "Mastering LinkedIn in 7 Days or Less" and a LinkedIn Master. Did you join LinkedIn and haven’t used it a lot because you didn’t know where to start or what to do? Or wonder what it can do for you in growing your business? Or how people are really using LinkedIn and what their success stories are? Jan Wallen, a sales and LinkedIn Master and author of Mastering LinkedIn in 7 Days or Less, will show how you can use LinkedIn to grow your business. And how you can build a network that you’ll use now and throughout your career. She demonstrates in a non-technical way and from a real person’s perspective how LinkedIn works and the Top 5 things you can do to make it work for your business goals. You’ll have an Action Plan of specific steps to take to start using LinkedIn for yourself and your organization when you leave. You will learn why 40+ million people are using LinkedIn, real LinkedIn Success Stories, the differences between LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and other social networking sites. Jan has 20 years experience with Fortune 500 and Big 5 firms, advising, mentoring, consulting and training C-level executives, partners and business owners. She has helped thousands of professionals find success in their business and their careers. Whether you’re a CEO, executive, salesperson or entrepreneur, Jan’s practical, positive approach and strategies give you all the tools, inspiration and confidence to reach your business and professional goals using LinkedIn. Her style is energetic and engaging, and she delivers her message with straightforward clarity. She publishes an eColumn (www.LinkedInWorks.com) with articles, tips, insights and advice from the Experts on how to use LinkedIn to find clients … in record time with LinkedIn. Now in its 16th year, FINE provides peer support, training, client referrals and networking opportunities in a friendly atmosphere. FINE provides the opportunity to meet new people, make business connections and to hear and discuss topics of current interest. FINE was formed by a small group of people who left the corporate world and wanted a place to network and provide support to each other as they ventured out in the world of entrepreneurship. FINE meets in the Westport Library and the Westport Country Playhouse. For more information, contact Ed Fitzgerald at 203-803-0714 or ed.fitzgerald@cbmoves.com.
