“Why Elevator Pitches Fail Miserably, and How Yours Can be a Smashing Success.”

Wednesday Feb. 15, 2012

Please join the NM Chapter of the National Assoc. of Women Business Owners for our upcoming February 15, 2012 Dinner Meeting with guest speaker Dave Meurer, CEO of Armed Response Team.

From our annual survey last summer and our monthly meeting surveys, you have been asking for Marketing, PR and Leadership presentations. We have been listening and stay tuned as we have some great speakers lined up for the second half of our year.

In this era of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other social medias, are we still doing in-person networking?  Dave Meurer will share his insights why he strongly suggests that face-to-face networking is still one of the best ways to make a positive first impression, and to build your business.

President’s Letter February 2012

Members, new members and visitors, thank you for taking time to visit our website.  As I write this message I am in the mist of the “2012 N.M. Legislative Session”.  As a lobbyist, I have the opportunity to represent NAWBO and my clients on various business and industry issues that are important to all of us. 

A 30 day legislative session typically focuses on budgetary items however this year’s session has a number of other bills that have been introduced and accompanied by a message from the Governor.  I imagine our legislators, lobbyists and legislative staff will be quite busy for the next few weeks. 

NAWBO N.M. will focus on two main issues this year, the redesign of the N.M. tax code and the reorganization of the PRC.  A number of bills have already been introduced related to both these issues.
