Making Connections in the community

I have spent the last two months making connections. Here's what I accompished
1) presented 4 free one hour intro to massage seminars - one at a shelter, two at doggie daycare places and one at a community center.
2) This has led to starting 2 (for pay) mini-courses (4 sessions each) teaching the dog owner how to massage their own dog.
3) This has led to a few private clients that I massage because they need extra care.
4) I am planning to continue this approach of free intro and 4 session follow-up course over the next few months.
5) I have just made by first Veterinary contact and my own Vet thinks massage for her clients would be a great idea. Also she would like to offer my intro free demo to her patients. This will open up an entirely new dimension for me working with Vets. Lots of learning and hopefully I will be able to help.
6) Have agreed to help a breast cancer group for a fund raiser by making my doggie demo class the "entertainment / educaiton part of the fund raiser. That should happen in June.
7) With help from a dear friend, I now have a beautiful color flyer and within short order, a color tri-fold brochure.
8) I have accepted the invitaiton to advertise in the BorthEast Animal Shelter's pamphlet they give out to the adotpers. perhaps 2500 a year. Lots of opportunities may arise from this.
9) I have teamed up with the Ipswich Animal Shelter to give free massages at Petco and help them raise a little money. I did this once already and several more are planned.
10) So lots going on and more planned. I will attempt to make a Blog entry at least once a week going forward.
