SUMMARY:Network with Confidence: The Elevator Pitch Lab for Women in Business
DESCRIPTION:Sharpen your pitch and boost your biz confidence in this fun\, hands-on session made just for women in business.\n\n\nCharlotte Business Babes x Charlotte Networking Knowledge \n \nYou don’t leave networking events disappointed because you didn’t try. You leave because you felt nervous\, unsure of what to say\, or struggled to clearly communicate your value. \n \nThis interactive workshop for women is designed to help you feel confident\, stand out naturally in conversations\, and communicate what you do in a way that feels memorable. \n \nPerfect if this is your first networking event and you want a comfortable\, empowering environment\, or if you simply want a confidence boost and time to practice! \n \nYou’ll learn a modern elevator pitch framework that helps you confidently explain what you do\, who you help\, and why it matters so the right people immediately understand your value and know how to support or refer you 🤍 \n \nThis workshop is hands-on. You’ll receive guided support\, practice with partners\, and apply what you learn through intentional networking so you leave having actually used your pitch\, not just written it down. \n \n📍Thursday\, March 12 \n🕡 6:30 to 8:30 pm \n🍸 State of Confusion \n \nThe workshop is led by Dana Alfirevic\, founder of Charlotte Networking Knowledge and a purpose driven entrepreneur passionate about helping professionals show up with clarity and confidence. In 2025\, Dana was recognized as one of Charlotte’s Top 30 Under 30 Future Leaders for her impact on the local business community ✨ \n \nYou’ll leave feeling confident and ready to walk into any room knowing exactly how to introduce yourself and why you belong there 💗
