Dear RSFBPW Members and Guests:
Happy Spring! The daylight hours are longer and the cycle of growth is beginning once again in the plants, flowers, trees and herbs. New buds are appearing and the ground is getter warmer and the glorious season of Spring is finally here.
April also brings us Earth Day, Tax Day, Take your Sons and Daughters to Work Day and Administrative Professionals Day. Secret word is "growth". There are definitely opportunites to raise awareness and acknowlege appreciation in many areas.
I am noticing at our meetings that more of you seem to be booking appointments with each other. I find it much easier to be able to refer my clients to other businesses when I've gotten to know someone better and fully understand what they have to offer.
I would like to encourage each member to select at least 1 or 2 members to personally connect with this month. Set up a coffee or lunch. Getting to know the other members outside of our meeting has really helped me to develop some strong lasting working relationships and friendships.
It's great to have those contacts in your phone for every situation you encounter. I know we all appreicate each other when we take the time to refer someone too!
We received news this month that one of our longtime members, Noel Spaid has passed away. I'm sure you all remember her bright and cheerful personality and how she always made us laugh with her 20 second commercial. I purposefully avoided sitting next to her because I never wanted to have to follow her with introductions. She will be missed
Let's make this the month to" spring" into action and help some new friendships "blossom".
Julie Hetherington
RSFBPW President

Your contact and business information is placed in our directory, as well as on our website in the membership section. Please remember to update your information whenever it changes, including new photos and logos. You are invited to participate in the monthly drawing for members only by bringing and talking about your donation during the drawing portion of our meeting. You can place your items for sale on 1/2 of a table located in the back of the room before, and after our monthly meetings, from January through October. You should arrive around 10:30 a.m. to secure your spot. You can share a 20 second commercial during our meetings. You can apply to speak at our member's showcase, some restrictions apply. You can post announcements for your products, services or events on our Facebook Business Page and participate in our LinkedIn Group page.
Monthly speakers are the only ones allowed to place their information on the luncheon tables during our meetings.

Shout-Outs and Testimonials
|
We may
run out of time at our meetings to share our testimonials for each other's services, products, and community announcements. We encourage you to write your praise and mail an email or note to the member who you want to applaud. Send your friends a special email sharing your testimonial about the member you are highlighting. Post your Shout-Out on our RSFBPW Facebook page and on your own FB page.
We offer Shout-outs and testimonial time at the end of many of our meetings, however it depends on the time left after our speaker has concluded their presentation. We do not offer testimonial time at our November and December meetings because of the length of the program. We encourage you to pass out your information, flyers, handouts and community announcements during the open networking time which is between 11:15 a.m. and 11:45 a.m.
You may also want to use your 20 second commercial time during the meeting to share your business event or announcement with the group and invite interested members to pick up a flyer with more details in the back of the room. Thanks for cheerfully working with us!

A Gentle Reminder about Spamming RSFBPW members
|
Members and visitors must individually ask each member for permission to place them on any form of mass communication-email blasts, newsletter lists, U.S. Mail lists or group texts. Without each member's individual permission, we consider this type of communication to be an act of spamming. To build long-term relationships with members please write personal notes and emails first and after developing rapport, ask these members only for permission to place them on your mailing list. Thank you for your cooperation. |
Have a clear and concise message. Screen real estate is valuable on mobile, so keep the content here simple and focus on the essentials. Think about the goal of your email. Do you want people to shop online, come into the store, share a sale with friends via Facebook - or maybe you just want them to read an article on your website? Whatever your goal, it's important to make sure you have one before hitting send.
