A MEMBER’S EXPERIENCE
|
When I joined NJAWBO, I was a fledgling business
owner with ideas, hopes, dreams with more questions
than answers. I
wanted to meet women business owners who knew more than
I did, who had successes and failures they were willing
to share to help me grow. There
had to be a group that’d encourage me and support me
when miracles didn’t happen just because I wanted them
to. I found
that group. It
is NJAWBO - a terrific organization of woman owned small,
medium and large businesses.
I stay because:
I
was welcomed
though I couldn’t give suggestions on how others could
grow their business.
I met terrific women who, like me,
were new to business and others who had years of experience
behind them. We
all have years of experience in front of us.
They helped me understand what was
involved in growing my business
They gave me good suggestions to
digest and try to pursue
I stay because it's a terrific organization
I look forward
to meeting you and talking with you at events.
