Events

TOAST & STRAWBERRIES, a distinctive Dupont Circle boutique is planning to continue its very successful monthly Fashion and Networking Evenings in 2002.

Usually the second Monday of each mopnth, 6-9PM.

Everyone has the opportunity to talk about their project or business, but at most of the Networking Evenigs, there is a main speaker, for example, Joyce Howard of the Small Business Administration talked about the SBA’s programs.

Since beginning the after work sessions, owner, Rosemary Reed Miller, and her associates have seen the attendance and business generated at the sessions steadily increase. Some of the business persons who attend, including stock brokers, lawyers, real estate agents, travel agents, along with a host of fashion, beauty and health care providers have received contract/business on the spot.

Each business representative is given 5-6 minutes to pitch his or her product or service. The potential for generating business at these more than social forums is tremendous. The fact that each business comes to generate business means that many business cards are exchanged--so bring plenty!

The Dupont Circle location, 1608 Conn. Ave., NW , means that you are just a subway ride away. So, if you are looking for a cost-effective, proven way to generate business--come out to the monthly TOAST & STRAWBERRIES FASHION AND NETWORKING EVENING.

Date: Usually second Monday, each month

Time: 6-9 p.m.

Location: 1532 Upshur, N.W.

Admission: $20.00
