Network to Elevate Your NetWORTH - Dr. Tracie Hines Lashley

IBGR - PROFIT Radio Network. Everything a business owner needs to start, grow, or exit a business. Come grow with us.

Introduction

We have all heard of the saying, “your network is your netWORTH”. I was always a believer that no one can affect my net worth. Well… I found out that I was wrong. As business owners, we try to do things on our own or things that we must be the know-it-all, be all, and do all. Ladies, this is not true. We must start to collaborate and build strong connections to elevate to another level. 

Now, let us WomanUP and watch how your business will THRIVE!
