Excerpt from website:
To succeed & exceed in business, it is necessary to develop strong, lasting professional relationships. The focus of PRO is business development by creating the opportunity for you to network, develop marketing skills, share resources, and increase referrals while expanding your personal and professional sphere of influence on a regular basis.
Q: What made you want to start PRO?
A: I started PRO because I found immense value in professional networking, masterminding, and sharing resources.
Q: If you had to pick one thing out of your day, what’s the most exciting / favorite?
A: Coming home to my beautiful, loving family.
Q: Who is your ideal customer?
A: A solopreneuer who is eager to think outside of the box and contribute to the success of others.
Q: What do you consider your biggest weakness?
A: Procrastination.
Q: How are you improving on that weakness?
A: I am trying to plan out my week, and not be weak with my plan.
Q: What is your biggest strength?
A: I am a tenacious optimist.
Q: How do you like running [their business]?
A: With energy, enthusiasm, and a mix of humor.
Q: If you could change one thing about your businesses day-to-day routine, what would it be?
A: I would be more consistent with my daily schedule.
Q: Any new specials you can tell your customers about? 🙂
A: We are offering 50% off of our intake fee (a $37.50 value) with every membership through the last day of summer.
Q: If you had a chance to say one thing to a brand new customer, before they walk in the door, what would it be?
A: If you’re not part of a weekly resource or mastermind group, you are doing yourself and your business a huge disservice. Being part of PRO for the last 7+ years has cultivated strategies that have gained me far more business than any other referral source of income. It takes a different mindset to share your knowledge (and weaknesses) with your sphere of influence. Most people think business is a competition, when in reality you are only in competition with yourself. If you have a sharing mindset, you will excel. If not, you are going to continue to struggle throughout life. Come and check us out for free and experience the value. Coffee is on us!
