PWN launches business building series

A new location and a "back-to-business" attitude kicks off autumn for the Professional Womens Network. PWN is hosting a three-part Business Building series at Odyssey Country Club, 19110 Ridgeland Ave. in Tinley Park.

On Thursday, Sept. 23, Rebecca Palumbo, Creative Director of Rollins Palumbo Creative and a regionally recognized speaker, will present "Marketing For Results."

This 45-minute presentation during a buffet lunch combines discussion and interactive exercises about branding, strategy and marketing plans, mediums, and creative to give participants a very well-rounded education about marketing their business to drive sales, with a plethora of visuals from both the b2b and b2c markets.

In October, participants will learn from Alexandra Glumac, Workforce Development Specialist at South Suburban College/Business & Career Institute. Glumac will discuss best practices for customer service and how putting those practices in place will benefit your organization. In November, PWN will host "Pick the Brains of Smart Chicks," a question and answer panel discussion including Beth Fahey of Creative Cakes, Nancy Bernstein of Third Wing and Denise Stillman of Clear Directions, hosted by Andrea Darlas of WGN Radio.

Check in begins at 11:30; buffet lunch is served at noon. To make a reservation for any of these programs or for more information about the Professional Womens Network, contact Executive Director Bernadette Shanahan-Haas at info@pwncentral.com or 708-937-5525.
