The Village Business Collective: A Monthly Networking Experience this November
Advertisement
Start your morning with meaningful conversation, fresh perspective, and a little Village magic at the Village Business Collective at Ancient Lore Village — our monthly networking experience created to bring Knoxville’s business community together through genuine connection and engaging discussion!
Set against the storybook beauty of the Village Gardens, this refreshing approach to business networking offers guided conversation, intentional introductions, and opportunities to build relationships beyond the usual exchange of business cards.
This month, we are excited to welcome Erika Biddix — entrepreneurial strategist, speaker, and creator of the Aught Model of Success, for her session, Who Is Your Client? And Who Isn’t?
In this hands-on session, Erika will guide guests through a focused exercise designed to help them better understand the person their business is truly built to serve — including their needs, pressures, and priorities — as well as who may fall outside that picture. The goal is simple: leave with a clearer understanding of your ideal client and how that clarity can shape your business.
With more than two decades of leadership and operational experience, Erika helps founders and leaders build businesses that align with their values, goals, and real lives. Her approach to strategy is practical, thoughtful, and centered on defining success on your own terms.
Whether you are an entrepreneur, business owner, creative, corporate professional, nonprofit leader, or simply looking to become more connected within the Knoxville business community, the Village Business Collective offers a welcoming place to grow your network + gain fresh perspective!
