A favor to ask of you

Posted on by Shalom Klein

As you likely have seen by my recent emails and messages, our third annual FREE business and employment expo. “The Business Event” is right around the corner. Believe it or not, it takes place next Thursday, June 20, from 1 to 7pm at Evanston Township High School (1600 Dodge Avenue) and I mean it when I emphasize – you won’t want to miss it!

The event will feature thousands of business networkers, including some fantastic contacts, and dozens of business and employer exhibitors. Based on rave reviews, we have expanded our highly successful workshops forum which includes topics like “Rock the Room with your Instant Introduction”, “LinkedIn to Profitability”, “Get Set! Get Ready! Get Hired!”, and “The Four Keys of Branding”. An employment clinic, featuring Andrea Storz of The ARK will be running throughout the event as well.

As I said, best of all, the entire event is FREE! If you didn’t register yet, please go to www.TheBusinessEvent.com

SO, I HAVE A FAVOR TO ASK OF YOU:

Can you tell as many of your contacts about “The Business Event”? Please post to your Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn networks, and spread the word about the event! So much information is available online, so just forward the link (or this email) to www.TheBusinessEvent.com

Thank you in advance and I look forward to seeing YOU @ The Business Event!

To success,
