Hi guys, it's Lindsay Pinchuk, founder and host of Dear Founder. When I started my first business,

live virtual event. And based on your feedback, we're going to be talking about how to make a

reel for your small business on Instagram and why reels on Instagram are important for growth

and can help you sell. And then you're going to have the opportunity to connect and brainstorm with the other

women in attendance about your Reels strategy.

You are going to walk away from this virtual event with a tangible strategy and knowledge

And if you're in or near Chicago, our next live

event is Tuesday, June 11th. We're partnership dating this month, which means come ready to

meet other women who can enhance and support your business through strategic partnerships.

Click the link in our show notes to RSVP and reserve a spot for either one of these events.

I can't wait to see you there.
