  November and December at Her Business Her Voice Her Conversation we're infusing you with reasons why movement and reinvention are imperative NOW - you C.A.N (commit action now).

   I'm going to bring on people that inspire you to write your book to finally structure and build your business and if you want to reinvent but you don't know where to begin I have someone here to help you with that also. November is all about the movement it's all about doing.

  The sneak peek into December, I'm bringing on those that inspire you to keep moving, to keep building, to keep dreaming, to keep seeing, to understand that you can commit action now.

  Reminder – now is not the time to reallocate marketing dollars – to reduce your visibility, you must stay above the fold, visible these last two months of 2020.

  I spoke with Jerrilynn B Thomas, the creator of some powerful "women to watch "lists On LinkedIn. She says "smart women partner."

She is also a women's LinkedIn collaborative marketing strategist -helping all women increase their female client base using LinkedIn. We spoke about the power of collaboration sharing rather than selling, and the power of smart women partner.com   https://smartwomenpartner.com/.

Takeaways:

Jerrilynn has noticed that men dominate being overly bold seems to want to sell to women on LinkedIn before building business relationships - not a good thing to do

Women don't want to be consumers sold to right away; they are out to build teams, share, and collaborate.

For example, to get on one of Jerilyn's many lists, Influential African American Business Women You Should Follow on LinkedIn or Powerhouse Female Entrepreneurs Who Podcast (Audio & Video) has changed the professional standing. These lists carry much weight and gain copious amounts of attention.

Partnering is where the riches are without a hard sale.

One Million Women link up /smartwomenpartner.com is for all women on LinkedIn, a shelter from spam, pressure sales, and communication is a two-way street.
