Fort Myers Monthly Leading Ladies Networking Event

Hi there, I'm Kayla!

Thanks for considering attending this event with Leading Ladies Global Networking Group. While this event won't be our "traditional" style, I'd love for you to read a bit more about who we are and what we exist to do!

Don't worry, if you're "the new kid on the block" you're in good company! My husband and I just relocated to SWFL June 15th of 2021.

As we prepared for our move, I wanted to be able to connect with other Leading Ladies... you know the kind right? Business owners or leaders in their industries that inspire you, encourage you, and support you as you work hard to foster growth!

I was tired of the old fashioned networking. The good 'ol boys club or the "singles mingles" weren't cutting it. I wanted something that would be natural, fun, and a low time commitment/cost.

So, I launched SWFL Leading Ladies with hopes 10 women would come. To my surprise, our first event sold out! Now we are going global.... like, woah!

If you're trying to decide if this could be a fit for you, here's what you should know!

We believe:

* Celebrate the wins of others! We grow in business by lifting other Leading Ladies up! Mic Drop, am I right?

* We give one another a fair shot at earning each others business. We can have really fun events that also leads to powerful collaborations, quality referrals, and increases a businesses profitability

* There's power in being YOU! Your unique qualities are your secret sauce

* Our community has a lot to offer! Featuring different vendors, venues, and hosts gives us a wonderful overview of what skills, talents and services are available within our network

* Natural networking leads to quality connections! The old way of standing for a 20 second commercial each week with an obscure "ask" is just that, passé!

* 1 quality event a month is better than weekly meetings. Business owners and leaders are on a time crunch.1 event/month that leads to valuable 1:1 interactions over the next 3-4 weeks is a better process than weekly meetings with high annual fees.

Our process?

We highlight featured vendors, venues and hosts which change every event to give these Leading Ladies an opportunity to highlight their business! It's fun for us to experience new locations and activities and it keeps things exciting each month.

January 19th Event Details:

Featured Venue: Your CBD Store Fort Myers will be hosting our event for the evening and we can't wait for you to check out the space. Just a friendly reminder, we are officially "in season" so prepare for heavy traffic as you arrive.

Featured Vendors: We encourage you to find, follow & share content for all your gal pals on IG

@pastrychef_lesliesmith : Leslie is an amazing pastry chef who recently (December of '21) relocated to SWFL. I'm thrilled because we knew one another in a former life (like 5 years ago, ha!) and she reached out to join in on all we are doing with Leading Ladies. She's just launching her business here in SWFL and we are so excited she's jumped right in with mastermind & events. We will feature her brownies (some will even be available for purchase!) the night of our event.... can anyone say, "CBD BROWNIES"?
