Chamber AM Networking / A Coffee Exchange
2016-09-21 07:30 - 09:00 | Or
In exchange of our Networking AM this week, we are asking you as members to participate with a self-initiated conversation we are calling “A Coffee Exchange”. It’s pretty simple to begin and the returns could be immense.

What is a Coffee Exchange? It starts with you, calling up a fellow business person and inviting them to coffee Wednesday morning at the coffee house of your choosing.

And what will you be exchanging? Valuable tips to take your business to the next level and beyond. The conversation and questions can be created by you or you can use the questions listed below to springboard you into more.

Again, this is self-initiated and it’s a Member to Member activity. Enjoy and we look forward to hearing the reviews of our first Coffee Exchange.

Questions

What is your “Go To” activity that brings you the biggest results for your business?
How do you overcome discouragement?

What do you need to do today that you didn’t do yesterday?

What are some things you do really well?
What helps you get unstuck?
What would you like to see improved in your business?
