Looking for consulting work/speaking gigs

Veteran

Patrick Nelson Elk River, MN

I lost my job in February working with a small leadership development consulting firm. I've started my own business now, doing the same thing, and I am struggling. It's obviously a very difficult time for everyone, so I am not unique. I just thought I would try to tap into this network to see if anyone is up for a phone call to learn how I can add value to your organization through a motivational/inspirational event/webinar or facilitating a leadership development workshop. I am happy to pilot my services complimentary to demonstrate what I bring. Thank you.

> SpeakerHub -- speakerhub.com

I know you'll be successful ... I appreciate you reaching out ... and continue spreading the good word!

Hi Patrick,

I suggest you attend a local Toastmasters club. You can showcase your speech as well as network with members of that club. In addition, you can visit local business organization to share your work.

Thank you for your service.

Good luck!

Regards,
Will Lukang
