The Symposium was organized by Shannon Malkin Daniels, author and founder of SPEAC: Public Speaking, Communication and Mindset Coaching, and Cheryl Henchar, founder of Cheryl’s Creative Services. Shannon and Cheryl created this event to give small business owners an opportunity to promote their businesses, build relationships with potential referral partners and customers, and learn valuable information they can use to grow their business – all while giving back to charity. “Giving back is very important to me. I want to hold this event as a way to help the small business community and support a cause that’s near and dear to me.” Shannon said.
