#femfessionals

From Nathalie Gregg:

I wanted to share this exciting information with you……

Femfessionals is a national professional women’s networking group and I have been asked to start the Columbia Chapter. (I started the Fan Page FemCity Columbia if you’re not already a fan!) http://www.facebook.com/?ref=tn_tnmn#!/FemCityColumbia  My hope is that this group will be the ONE that every professional woman in Columbia wants to be a part of- from the speaker topics to the opportunity to showcase your business or company at every meeting, to (my favorite part) the opportunity to give a shout out to another fabulous female professional at each event!

So what is Femfessionals? Well, it’s in a word: fabulous. There are currently 38 Femfessional Chapters around the country and there should be 80 by the end of the year. Growing a national business community for women, Femfessionals provides unlimited opportunities for its members to connect, grow and conduct business with our community of ambitious professional women. Furthermore, Femfessionals actively supports and promotes its members, community involvement and philanthropic causes.

The first fall FemCity Columbia Connection Event will be held on Thursday, October 25 at 11:30 am at the Capital City Club on Main Street Columbia, SC. We will be honored by special guest Taryn Scher. Please join us for our October Connection Lunch with Featured Taryn Scher of TK PR & FemCity Greenville, SC. She will present PR 101! During the event, you will also learn about Columbia’s newest female professional group! PR 101 with Taryn Scher! 2011 SBA South Carolina Young Entrepreneur of the Year.

Do you ever wonder how companies get their products, events and special announcements featured on local TV, in the newspaper, or even in national magazines? In Public Relations 101 you will learn how to capture the media’s attention without ever paying for it! Taryn Scher of TK PR will share the inside scoop from the world of PR that has led her to have clients featured in Oprah's O Magazine, Fox and Friends, Time Magazine and more! Registration: The cost to attend this event is $25 members and $35 for non-members! Please register early!
