The Secret to Building a 7-figure Business

Online

Too many women are hustling the joy right out of their business, and it’s costing them money. They work longer and longer hours struggling to get ahead and grow their brand... They put up with nightmare clients who suck up their time and steal their sanity... They tone down their magic trying to be everything for everybody… Maybe you can relate. Before I cracked the code and built a 7-figure business that I ADORE, I did all those things too. In fact, I hustled so hard I literally made myself sick. Then everything came to a screeching halt — including my cash flow. That’s when I met a teacher who showed me the real way to build lasting, reliable revenue. Now, I’ve put together a free Masterclass to show you how to do it too. It all comes down to one small change that creates an incredibly lucrative domino effect for your entire brand.

Digital Government and CX National Insights – Summer Edition

Online

Event Overview Roadmap to Achieving Your Organization’s Digital Goals As Canada moves beyond the pandemic and repositions itself as a digital government, the challenge of obtaining internal buy-in, optimal use and access to data, and talent acquisition is still slowing progress. Strategies to achieve internal digital adoption are crucial for the success of the government’s digital goals, as is keeping users at the centre of digital planning. These strategies are imperative as success depends on how easy the services are for citizens to access and use. This quarter, we will focus on pertinent challenges like data accessibility and use for efficient transformation, strategies to keep the user at the centre of design, engaging and retaining the right talent and acquiring a tech stack to achieve the desired goal of digital transformation. Join Public Sector Network’s virtual event to learn how your agency can maintain and elevate your existing digital goals. Embark on the next phase of transformation by overcoming the internal limitations.
