Thank you Ellen Kaplan!

The NAWBO Boston Chapter spent an evening at the Boston Design Center in the beautiful Ailanthus, Ltd. showroom. Thank you Toni and Maria!

Our special guest, Ellen Kaplan, engaged us in a wonderful discussion around changing your business GPS. Ellen encouraged us to stay informed. 1. Knowledge is a valuable resource: stay connected, attend programs, carefully watch your industry and be aware. 2. Differentiate yourself: find a niche - something that you can specialize in to make yourself different from your competition. 3. Make sure your products and services are all of high value. 4. Have a strategic plan (always) and continually re-adjust your plan. 5. Become proactive rather than reactive.
