    "Wake-Up Call"

    Wake-Up Call is our NSA New England power hour of programming that begins at 8 AM and runs until 8:45 AM prior to the formal Saturday program. 

    This meeting is optional and FREE, just another benefit we are offering people who sign up for our regular Saturday meetings.

    MAKE IT REAL - NSA NE Members and Guests

    In this afternoon session you will have the opportunity to take everything you've heard in the morning and make it REAL in YOUR business. Make it Real is a benefit we're providing to the most recent members and aspiring speakers at NSA. Ask those questions you didn't have time to put to the speaker during the morning session!

    You're invited to this session if you are an Emerging Speaker, Fast Track participant, guest, or you've been a member fewer than five years. At NSA New England, we know that the most difficult part is getting value -- in other words, taking what you've learned here and putting it into action, so you grow your business and make it more profitable.

    Get more from your investment in the Saturday meeting. Get acquainted with colleagues who are at the same stage in business, facing the same challenges as you are.

    MASTERS CIRCLE - Members

    You're invited to join our Masters Circle if you are a CSP, if you've been a member five years, or if you're a current or past NSA New England board member.

    For this meeting, we will adjourn to the board room for a round table conversation. Masters Circle is a member benefit--designed to provide high value to experienced speakers and long-time members.

    As a pro in the speaking business, you know that great marketing has been one of the secrets to growing your successful business.  Veteran speakers have to stay on top of trends and precisely execute their strategies in this volatile business climate. 

    Come join the conversation, walk away with great ideas, and remember how it feels to connect with your long-time friends at NSA.
