Hi Don,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your post. I was very confused by your reflection. It was not very clear what you were trying to say. I like the people that you chose to reach out to for the assignment. They definitely seem like they fit the description of the people who would be able to help you grow your business and develop business relationships with. I was wondering if they answered and what they might have said since you didn't include that in your post.
