LinkedIn provides online access to over 260 million people worldwide.

Hi Sue
Thanks very much for the invitation to the webinar tonight. Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend. However, I still have a mass of ideas from your masterclass to implement and when I’ve done that I may end up booking a one on one session with you. I really appreciate you sharing the powerpoint slide and your handout. Thanks for sharing your knowledge so generously.
Best wishes
