Let’s Make Networking Work for You
Every talk Kim gives centers around helping entrepreneurs and small business owners show up in the right rooms, have better conversations, and build intentional collaborations that lead to visibility and income. Whether the focus is ideal clients, follow-ups, or content that educates — each session leaves the audience energized and equipped.

Most entrepreneurs waste time networking in the wrong rooms. In this session, Kim helps business owners define who they actually want to work with — not just who they can work with — and gives them a roadmap for finding and connecting with their ideal clients and collaborators.
