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?

Hi Reader, 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. |

Hi Reader, After 20 years, I'm moving house and probably will be moving again shortly thereafter. The prospect of moving is, in a word, daunting.

Recently, I also started cleaning out my business email box to free up storage and I was reminded of a...
Hi Reader, Every time I teach a business growth class, I ask students to include their top 3 highlights as their final slide of their business growth presentation. Whenever I book Katherine Pomerantz as a guest speaker, she ends up on so many students' final slide because they learn such amazing money tips that no one ever teaches us on how to build and protect generational wealth as an entrepreneur. Next week, on May 7th & 8th Katherine is holding aFREE event, MOMentum*, which she's designed...
Hi Reader, Most entrepreneurs don't think about insurance until, they need it, and by then it's too late. I sure didn't. It wasn't until a client asked me if I had it that it even entered my mind. Then, I had to quickly find a policy not really knowing what I was buying so I could confirm, "yeah, I'm covered." The truth is, there are a lot of different types of business insurance and what is right for you depends upon where you are, what you sell, how you sell it, and who you sell it to,...
