The agenda:
--------------------

We'll follow up the presentation with a Q&A then an opportunity for a "Have/Want" session.

"Have/Want" is an opportunity to find out if someone in the group provides a service you need or someone needs what you have to offer. Take a minute to stand up and tell us what you're looking for and what you can provide in return. Let's use each other's skills and increase each other's success.

Examples:
(1) I'm a Mac computer consultant in need of a logo and corporate identity package. I'll trade hours of troubleshooting or training.

(2) I need advice on breaking into the technical writing market. I can offer discounted copywriting rates to freelancers and small business owners.
