Newsletter Grannies - Absent Grandchildren…

Dear Grannies,

Unfortunately, many of our Grannies do not have grandchildren (yet), or their own grandchildren live far away or are already grown up.

Newsletter Grannies - Great networking is not a secret

Dear Reader, dear Grannies,

It's one of THE business buzzwords of the last few years: suggesting networking is incredibly important, otherwise you can hardly get ahead in your job.
