PBC SMART SEMINAR:
THE E-MYTH REVISITED  
 
with Robert Lewis

Robert Lewis,
The AdviCoach

Wednesday May 24th 
8:30 am - 10:00 am 

Baywinde Senior Living    
200 Kidd Castle Way
Webster, NY 14580

Why is it that with all the information available today on how to be successful in small business, so few really feel that they are? 
The E-Myth Revisited by Michael Gerber is a phenomenal tool to help answer that question, as well as allow you to determine if you are up for the challenge of taking your business to the next level.  This workshop explores the message of Gerber's book and will make you rethink how you're operating your business and how to take the steps "to make it run without you."  You will learn to appreciate what it is to work "on" the business and not "in" the business.

It is not required to have read The E-Myth Revisited
to enjoy and appreciate this workshop.

Bob Lewis has over 40 years of innovative business experience serving 30 years as President and franchisee of Rochester Manpower, Inc. Today he guides small and medium sized business owners to their full potential outcomes with  AdviCoach.

LinkedIn is the world's largest professional network with more than 313 million members worldwide.  It's a way to build credibility and demonstrate your expertise.  If you have an incomplete LinkedIn profile, that shows a lack of credibility and professionalism.  With first impressions going a long way, it's important to get yours right the first time.

During Michelle's presentation, attendees will learn:
  • Why LinkedIn matters
  • What's in it for them
  • The "TOP SECRET" four things your profile must have
  • With whom they should connect
  • Why they should be publishing posts
  • Why they should join LinkedIn Groups
 
 
Michelle Arbore is an international speaker where she presents on different aspects of social media.  She has spoken at local networking events, women's organizations and conferences, numerous chambers of commerce, and has been interviewed for webinars, telesummits, seminars, and podcasts.  She has also created and hosted different workshops and online challenges designed to help businesses grow.
