MAY 2023 UPDATE
This month we had a wonderful event with Elizabeth Seaward. Elizabeth lead us to question our concept of happiness in order to build a more realistic understanding and open up the possibility to create a practical approach to its construction. The event was practical and introspective and helped us come up with a definition of what happiness means to each of us.
Some Thank Yous:
- Thank you, Elizabeth, for sharing with us!
- Thank you to the Leadership Team who works very hard behind-the-scenes to make each of our events special and enjoyable for all!
- A huge thank you to the donors of some special door prizes for our May event: Our Director of Membership Emeritus Helen Griffin donated a RFID Blocking credit card wallet with a beautiful design.

PWNCR June In-Person Event:
Latest Marketing Trends
Time: 9:30 to 11:30 am
Where: Tin Jo Restaurant
Speaker: Anabelle Durán
Marketing is such a broad subject, and during these changing times, Marketing experts have had to become “experts at everything”. As of late, Marketing experts are being forced into technology, data analysis, psychology, innovation, industrial design, you name it.
For entrepreneurs and small companies, there are some key learnings that can be transferred from alternative industries, such as grocery retail. In this session, Anabelle will be covering different topics about the Marketing strategy, and, above all, about the core of all businesses – the clients!
Some key take-aways you will be sure to incorporate into your own professional career:
- Not letting your career block your passion!
- Make your passion profitable!
- Don’t let the ROI (Return on Investment) kill your value proposition!
- Keep it simple!
- The customer IS your passion!
