Are you taking advantage of the opportunities that exist right now? Any economic downturn (or even uptick for that matter) presents a different set of opportunities. With each business having their unique structure, considering how to forge ahead is critical in how you take advantage of growth. www.kirstenflory.com

Preparing your business for the future requires you to take a look at how you set your business up today. What is your sales cycle and how are you filling your pipeline?

I am publishing a new book this fall, and want to give you a "sneak peek." "Golfing in Heels" is my explanation of how to embrace your fear of something that you quite frankly, suck at. This book is a start and continuation of a conversation about how male golfers use golf as a means to an end. I will walk you through how you can change your perception about what is a socially acceptable way to do things and take charge of who you are and where you want to be.
