The Power of People

I give a speech entitled, "The Power of People," and in that speech I talk about the importance of building a strong network and the real and awesome value of such a network. I have been very fortunate in my life to be surrounded by many wonderful individuals and for that I am always thankful. I must say though, as I have started this new business venture, I have been truly and absolutely blown away by the outstanding people of the franchise industry. The words of encouragement and recommendation have been amazing, and I am so grateful to all who have either published comments, sent emails, gave a phone call or just wished me luck. Thank you!

I am using LinkedIn more and more these days to continue to build and keep in touch with my network. What a super tool this site is! There have been some really good discussions posted in the IFA Group and it is always fun to receive updates on what's happening with the Women's Franchise Network's around the country. If you are on LinkedIn, please look me up under "Susan Black-Beth" and let's LinkUp!

Never underestimate the power of people. One good relationship, or connection, could be the difference between a lived life and a life lived. Remember, you just never know who you are standing next to!

With Energy and Purpose,
Susan
