April 15, 2021 ~ FREE RSFbpw Virtual Meeting |

Dear RSFBPW Ladies and guests.
HAPPY SPRING! It's so wonderful to see that spring has sprung and gardens are starting to bloom again, birds are returning to our gardens and we have longer days to enjoy the outdoors. My outdoors includes nature walks along the many beautiful trails that San Diego has to offer, riding my bicycle along Coast Highway, visiting the Flower Fields and enjoying my own garden.
Our membership list has been updated and you'll notice we have some availability in a few categories for new members. We still have our membership dive running, so why not take a peek on line at https://ranchosantafebizprowomen.com and check out the updated member list. I would like to encourage each of you to post on social media inviting other professional women to join us for our April meeting. Sharp women have sharp connections! Remember, secret word is bloom, they can come as a guest for a few meetings to see if they think RSFbpw is a good fit for them before they apply for membership. Even if we don't have an open spot in their category yet, they can still network with our group until one opens up. We have three people per category. So invite away ladies! Who knows, you might walk off with an Amazon gift card!
Let's pack the room for our April meeting!
Happy Spring to you all and I look forward to seeing you at our meeting on April 15th! Our meeting will start at 11.45am. See you then.

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!

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. |
