Today, NAWBO Chicago is spotlighting our BXG leader, Helen Bloch of the Law Offices of Helen Bloch, P.C.! 🌟 Role In NAWBO Chicago: Leads the Business Exchange Group (BXG) Years In Business: 17 Company Location: Chicago, IL Coffee Order: I’m not a coffee drinker. I bounce off the walls enough without caffeine. Dream Vacation: I’m still dreaming – I would like to visit every state in the U.S. I’ve visited most in the contiguous U.S. Why does the work of NAWBO Chicago matter? "NAWBO Chicago is an excellent forum for business owners irrespective of size to connect, learn from one another and generate business. One can take out of the organization what one puts in or what one wants to obtain. For instance, if it is learning new skills to implement, one can take classes through NAWBO. If it is resources to help grow the business, because NAWBO is so diverse, it is easy to find a strategic partner. To use a practical example: if one is looking for marketing assistance, I bet a fellow NAWBO member is either in the marketing business or knows another NAWBO member who does marketing for a living. I used a fellow NAWBO member to create my website." Share a NAWBO Chicago success story or connection that helped take your company to the next level. "As an attorney, I focus on my practice, which includes keeping up with the law. I do not have time to study the latest in technology or social media marketing. By networking with fellow members and listening to them speak at the BXG I lead or at a Connects, I get to keep up with innovative business ideas. From the tips of fellow NAWBO members I became savvier in social media, which lead to an increased presence and expansion of my client base." #nawbochicago #nawbo #nawbomember #networking #coaching #chicagobusinesswomen #chicagowomeninbiz #womenbusinessowner #femaleentrepreneur #femaleceo
