It was helpful because I was able to assist in setting policy and had the opportunity to work along side and build relationships with seasoned business owners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Currently I attend the Power Networking Breakfast&lt;/strong&gt; when their is a speaker of interest. If I were a member now, I would attend the work shops they offer and tap into the network and resources they offer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;I recommend reviewing the membership &lt;/blockquote&gt;list and communicating with an entrepreneur that has a like business. Request to attend an event with them as their guest to get a feel for how the organization can or cannot fit your needs.
