Northern NV Chamber Luncheon: Influence – How to Create it to Build a Thriving Business

The more influence a person has, the more of what he or she wants will come with ease. When people trust you, respect you, remember you, they will want to help you, and go out of their way to tell others about you — when this happens you have influence. Influence is a key ingredient in building a profitable, sustainable and thriving business.

Presenter:  Caterina Rando, San Francisco Entrepreneur, best-selling author of Learn to Power Think
