A discussion on the advantages of making direct contact to find your prospects and techniques to overcome the hurdles that prevent you from doing so. Today's technology makes it possible for us to get closer than ever before, but can become barriers to contact, creating layers of separation. Erika will walk you through some ways to identify your prospect, putting you on a path that will help you convert that prospect into an opportunity.

At our next event, Mr. Jake Hayes will provide us with an exciting and passionate view about the small business scene in the Upstate of SC.
"20th Century Anomaly: The Employee Generation"
With the rise of industrialism there was an dramatic increase in the overall number of employees at each firm. This trend continued through much of the 20th century creating management and an employee driven society. In recent decades the trend has begun to reverse as more employees become employers and technology enables smaller firms to compete. What is this trend and how can we adapt as business reverts to a tradesman environment?
* Home Based Businesses now employ more than companies receiving venture capital investment
* Non-Employer firms now account for more than $108 Billion in annual revenue (.75% of GDP)
* Small businesses account for more than 97% of new job growth
A small business fanatic, Jake Hayes' vision is to assist companies so they continue to grow and be successful. Jake is an active business advisor spending most of his time with business owners, constantly working to find better ways to execute business. He is a relentless advocate for small business who is driven to remove bureaucracy that impedes so many entrepreneurs. Jake is the owner of InSource Executives (http://www.InSourceExecutives.com) and founder of Enterprise Launch (http://www.EnterpriseLaunch.com), which was created to help small business owners. His true passion is for entrepreneurs especially those in their early years of development. Jake recently developed the full day seminar "Launch Greenville 2010" with keynotes, panels, information, over $14,000 in giveaways, and connections for local businesses. When Jake is not working with entrepreneurs he can be found public speaking at business events.
The lunch event will begin at 11:45 am and last until 1:15 pm. Please, mark your calendars and RSVP with the Club early online or with the concierge (it makes planning the event much easier!). Guests are welcome, hence bring friends, colleagues, business associates, and family members!
