Dear subscriber

We've been so focused on everything that has changed lately that it would be easy to think that nothing stayed the same - but of course it has.
Our customers still want great service, great value and to have their needs met in the best way we know how.
There are also underlying values about the way we work that we don't want to change and its fascinating to see the discussion about this in our LinkedIn Group today.
Which unchanging aspects of your business are worth your investment of time and effort?

Regina Ray creates portraits that even the most camera shy people love! She has a knack for getting her subjects to relax and show their confident, trustworthy, talented, fun and genuine selves. Far from the usual business style, Regina's portraits are more like pieces of art and worthy of a place on the cover of Time Magazine.

Sometimes you have questions, sometimes you have answers.

“How do I …?”
“What the best way to …?”
“What do you recommend for …?”
“Who do you know who is good at …?”

One of the biggest problems about running your own business is that there is so much to know and sometimes, you just don’t know what you need to know or which answers to trust.

Drive the Network members not only have a huge range of expertise and experience, they are one of the few groups that can be trusted not to try to sell anybody a solution, so their answers are invariably reliable.

Bring a question to these new monthly events and join in to help design creative answers.
Everybody learns, everybody wins!
