As a recent member of the National Speakers Association (NSA), I’ve enrolled in the Northern California Chapter’s Pro-Track series. This program is intended to help Speakers grow a business around their passion. While I’m comfortable with my business building abilities, building a business around me as a person (instead of a product or service) is a new venture. I’m amazed at the value that’s forthcoming – and I haven’t even attended my first meeting! As it turns out, NSANC (Northern California Chapter) allows all Pro-Track members to attend the monthly meetings at no cost. That’s close to $100 value per meeting.The first meeting I attended focussed on publishing a book. I’m interested in publishing my thoughts into a book, but I’m not sure the time is right for me now. Regardless, the people I met at this meeting, along with the conversations, were amazing. I look forward to the next 12 months – 23 more meetings, where I can learn, teach, and interact with my fellow Entrepreneurial colleagues.
