Lark, will help you to refine the skills necessary for successful networking, both on-the-ground and on-line.
Networking is an established way to promote your business and your areas of expertise. Networking also allows you to be an excellent referral resource.

Through demonstrations, Regina shows you how to use social media (e.g. LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook) to its maximum advantage.
