Power Hour - From Connections to Community: Building Relationships That Drive Business Growth

"From Connections to Community: Building Relationships That Drive Business Growth"

"Networking” doesn’t grow your business. Relationships do.

Join me for From Connections to Community: Building Relationships That Drive Business Growth — a fast, 20‑minute session where you’ll learn how to:

• Turn one-off conversations into ongoing relationships

• Create simple follow-up habits that feel natural (not salesy)

• Build a community that sends referrals, repeat business, and real support

If you’re tired of collecting business cards and ready to build something that actually moves the needle, this is for you.

Presented by Laylan Pennel, owner of Impulse & Optimism. Laylan is a brand consultant and creative business strategist who helps small businesses turn “big, wild ideas” into clear, authentic brands that actually feel like them. She partners with local owners to refine their visual identity, messaging, marketing, and customer experience, often weaving in events, training, and community-building so clients don’t just look good online — they become places people love to talk about and return to.
