Hello listeners! I'm Caroline Schafer, the Podcast Producer for the AMSE Agency. I can finally say, "It's officially fall!" I can also admit I've already watched Hocus Pocus at least twice, and my porch is decorated for Halloween. I've been anticipating all the things October has to offer!! Which is exactly why our CEO Moni Jefferson loves to start the month giving you all the info about what's coming up, what's going on, and what's the best way for you to grow your business, yourself, and your network as a member of the AMSE Agency. We start off October with a brand new offer to really "Build Your Business the AMSE Way.'' On October 4th, we will launch the first AMSE Cohort course with Moni. This includes 7 modules with tools you need to start and grow your business. You'll receive weekly Q & A coaching calls focused on the module's lessons and homework. Plus, accountability to help you succeed - because we all need that to help us reach our goals! This is tailored specifically for you and with one-on-one support from Moni. You'll be glad you invested in the 2021 AMSE Cohort. Head over to the dashboard today to sign-up. October 7th at 12:00 pm EST in our monthly Facebook Live!

Join her on October 21st at 1:30 pm EST as she teaches you how to work smarter, serve better, live freely, and be profitable.

Corey's background is in marketing is one of the many reasons he loves the job he has at Stars and Stripes because it allows him to give anyone who serves the military community a chance to reach and support the audience of Stars and Stripes.
