I help entrepreneurs leapfrog over the typical potholes that derail most small businesses with inspiration, motivation, education, and support across a wide range of business topics drawn from over a decade of running my own business, teaching entrepreneurship for the City of New York, and coaching and consulting privately with dozens of women and minority small business owners. Honestly, why go it alone when help is an email away?

It's been a while since I've done any public workshops or speaking engagements and I'm excited to announce I'm returning to one of my favorite venues next week, the New York Public Library Business Center. It's a virtual session, so no matter where you live, you can join in the fun and education! Stop Selling Yourself Short: Avoid Common Pricing MistakesMonday, May 19th 12:00PM-1:30PM (ET)
In this session, I share the 5 pricing mistakes I see all the time with my students and clients and how to avoid or fix them as well as some of my best pricing tips. Plus, there'll be plenty of time to answer questions, too. But don't just take my word for how valuable this session is going to be. Here's what attendees of my free pricing sessions say: Got so much out of Lauren's talk. Can’t believe it was free of charge.
Super informative and helpful. One of the best speakers! If you are struggling with pricing products/services, I highly recommend attending any of Lauren's informative sessions on pricing. I know with the current economic uncertainty, pricing is a hot button topic for a lot of businesses. It's one element of our strategy that we have ultimate control over and that can make or break us. It's also one of the key ways to position your company for ultimate success or failure. I hope you'll join me Monday and bring your burning pricing questions with you. Until next time, Your success is our strategy!No longer want to receive my newsletter but don't want to miss my special offers and announcements? Click here. |

I promised I'd share some AI wins after bashing on it for the last couple of months, so here goes. An old client of mine runs a wine shop in Brooklyn. She's got some help but she's largely a one-woman show. She's been using Monday's AI features to help her analyze and manage her inventory and understand seasonal sales trends to purchase more smartly. She had to level up her investment and hire someone to help her set up the AI agents she needs but feels it's been money well-spent. Another one...
