Dear small business owner,

Around November, I notice a particular sort of buzz in the air, something that reminds me of finishing and completion. Here in Toronto, the weather has turned very cool, near freezing at night and most of the the leaves on trees have gone. I also notice people rushing to finish their planning and projects to a successful year-end!

I am delighted to bring you the November 2019 edition (#71) of the monthly NewPath Consulting newsletter.

Three new highlights from October and early November:

▪ In October, we introduced a new Quick Start Pack to help smaller Wild Apricot customers get up and running in the platform. We are also working on a "discovery workshop" to help prospective customers decide whether Wild Apricot is right from them as well as whether there is a good fit between our services and a Wild Apricot prospect. Stay tuned!
