Bring a friend, have your say and win the day.
October brings back the elevator pitch full of Fall friends and fab prizes.
Our meetings are too large for everyone to share the ultimate marketing minute, but we found a way around that!
The first 10 members that sign in with a friend will get to share their company story for :60. We will sweeten that deal by placing your business card in a special drawing for one of several fabulous prizes.
