Wingman Day - someone you should have in your life

Joe Sweeney, best selling author of "Networking is a Contact Sport" asks "Do you have a Wingman?"A wingman is that person or persons you reach out to as a sounding board, a trusted confidant, an accountability partner.  Whether for your business, your career or your personal life, your wingman or wingwomen helps you focus and act for success.

On November 11, we're celebrating "Wingman Day" at A Cunningham CPA LLC.  This celebration will include gathering and sharing stories, wins and losses of how your wingman has helped you in your work and  business  life. (and how you've acted as a wingman for others)

The first 11 participants who email us on 11/11 starting at 1:11 AM with the following will receive a free copy of Joe's book.  To participate and win, please email the following no sooner than 1:11 am on 11/11.

  1. Do you have a wingman?  if yes, please share a story of how that person has helped you; or if No, why not?
  2.  Are you a wingman or wingwoman for someone?  If yes, again, a story of how you have helped that person.  If not, again, why not?
  3.  Do you want a wingman or are you willing to be one?  We are looking to build an informal network of valued friends who are willing to be one for others or who would like one.  We'll work with you behind the scenes to build your very own "board of advisors" or Wingmen to help you achieve maximum success.

Again, first 11 to respond on 11/11 after 1:11 am win a free copy of "Networking is a Contact Sport" by Joe Sweeney.  We plan to share your stories so let us know if this is not OKay.  Our email for this is "tony@acunninghamcpa.com". Early entries don't qualify - give it a few days to ponder and draft your story!!

Please - no bar stories and do not name your wingman.
