August 2007 - Women's Forum Meeting
The Women's Forum Tea
The ladies had a fabulous time meeting new business contacts and enjoying the delicious tea sandwiches, scones & refreshing ice tea and lemondade. The hat contest was a lot of fun too!

What to expect at an RBA Women’s Forum meeting
Meetings are typically attended by between 30-50 participants. Most are women though some men join us. Meetings attract corporate as well as entrepreneurial members.
Each meeting includes:
-
Introductions: About one minute in an "Elevator Speech" format which is described below. Through the introductions we set the stage for doing business together!
-
Member Profile: One or two members share their story – how they’ve achieved success, their mentors and key landmarks. This popular segment is always inspiring.
-
Program: Our programs are always educational, and always interactive so that we can learn from one another as our relationships deepen and prosper.
Women’s Forum meetings begin by circling the room for everyone’s elevator speech, or short summary about your business. Below, find a format which might be useful.

- To target group
- and my ideal referral would be:
Participants are invited to HOLD UP sales or resource material as you introduce yourself. Bring extra copies for the resource table and at the end of the meeting remember to take with you any remaining information. |
