After 6 moves across the country, its a systematic process!

#06_social - May 31, 2024 at 04:12 PM

Team’s choice! Since our members live all across the country, choosing together and possibly a central location would make everyone happy. If anyone wants to sponsor us, let me know

Thank you!

#02_general - March 08, 2024 at 04:41 PM

Done!

#02_general - March 08, 2024 at 04:19 PM

Perfect! I appreciate your help!

#02_general - March 08, 2024 at 04:17 PM

Paid for 2 days, $500 - Monday and Tuesday from 9-4:30pm. I can ship over items for the table (which will already be set up). Event is at the St. Mary University, it’s a graduate law program (masters, non-JD) conference so they’d be in a small vendor section. I would provide talking points about our company services for consulting and elearning development and delivery. Basically, attendees will wander through over the two day period and I need someone to visit with any potential leads, take their information down and we’ll follow up the following week. During those days the conference people will provide breaks and I believe lunch but if not, I can reimburse for lunch as well. Smaller conference so traffic will be very manageable. Dress code is business attire. Happy to chat with her directly if its easier and I’ll also provide a reference if they’re looking to add to their resume.

Hi Colin, that would be great! If you want to share my email, she can reach out - sher.downing@downingedtechconsulting.com|sher.downing@downingedtechconsulting.com I’m hoping to get things wrapped today or tomorrow. Thanks!

#02_general - March 07, 2024 at 09:06 PM

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some ‘boots on the ground’ help next week during a conference in San Antonio. If you have connections in TX (who aren’t tied up at SxSw) I’d love to chat with them. Thanks!

#06_social - February 20, 2024 at 04:28 PM

Not investing in the right expertise but merging work with someone already on the team.

#05_opportunities - January 10, 2024 at 06:27 PM

Hi everyone, as you know the world is a little topsy turvy right now and I have a great recommendation if you’re looking for a fractional CEO or CFO. He’s interested in remote work but willing to travel to locations as needed. If you have an interest, let me know and I”m happy to connect you!

#03_events - December 16, 2023 at 12:26 AM

@Brian Lee and @Taiga Gamell so sorry I’m going to miss the Happy Hour! Previous commitment will pull me away, so happy holidays! Sher

#06_social - December 01, 2023 at 09:02 PM

A combination of all of the above to provide opportunities for innovation, strategy, and focus.

#01_introductions - September 22, 2023 at 07:09 PM

Welcome Josh!

#05_opportunities - September 21, 2023 at 03:38 PM

Wonderful! If you’ll provide an email, I’ll get you connected. Thanks!

#05_opportunities - September 19, 2023 at 04:55 PM

Hi Sia, I can confirm track of success, types of fundraising would be better as a direct conversation with him as I don’t have background on it in-depth. Happy to connect you with, if that is of interest. Thanks!

#06_social - September 15, 2023 at 03:43 PM

I’d add engaging with business and industry (mentoring, advising, fractional). Bringing those 4 items together along with an immersed experience provides impactful knowledge as well.

#01_introductions - August 31, 2023 at 10:36 PM

Welcome Draymond, sounds like a terrific focus! Be sure to connect with me on LinkedIn, I think we could have a great conversation! Best, Sher

#05_opportunities - August 22, 2023 at 06:41 PM

Hi Hepzel, I’m actually referring a fractional CFO, not seeking one. Thanks!

#05_opportunities - August 17, 2023 at 03:16 PM

Hi @Berk C. Celebisoy please see my post above and let me know if you’d like a connection.

#05_opportunities - August 16, 2023 at 11:11 PM

Hi all, yes, comfortable working remotely and is located in VA/D.C. area. Happy to make a connection, just let me know.

#05_opportunities - August 11, 2023 at 03:41 PM

Hi, anyone in the market for a fractional or full-time CFO with CEO/GM capabilities? I have someone looking to get into the next big venture, experience with previous series-B, startups and corps. DM me if you’d like a connection.

#06_social - July 07, 2023 at 03:55 PM

Hard to track at the moment, so much activity going on but I’m definitely seeing an increase in seeing people who had really minimized posting on Twitter. If nothing else, we’re getting a new wave of activity!

#03_events - July 07, 2023 at 12:09 AM

If there are any recordings, will definitely catch up once I return to the office!

#03_events - July 07, 2023 at 12:09 AM

@Brian Lee I’m going to be off on vacation next week but look forward to future meetings!

#01_introductions - July 06, 2023 at 03:33 PM
