Michelle Alberda, Michelle Balog and Stacey Fleece began their careers at different times, but came together many years ago when they began honing their networking skills and building their separate business through referrals. As savvy women they wanted to capitalize on their networking power exponentially. That is how Skirt Working was born…Skirt being an acronym for Sharing Knowledge, Information & Resources Together. All three are award winning recognized leaders in their separate fields. In addition to their business success they are all active leaders in philanthropic and community organizations.
Michelle Alberda is Michelle 1. Michelle Balog is Michelle 2.
Introduction
Michelle, Michelle and Stacey have about 40 years of combined experience in financial services and the real estate industries. In 2005 that had their first SKIRT meeting with only 7 members. Now they have a full meeting roster with a waiting list of prospective members. The rewards of membership are upwards of 35% in new business (that is huge). We are going to talk about skirt today…But before we do let me tell you this…. Talk about varied backgrounds…very briefly: Michelle Alberda (Michelle #1) went from a Michigan University to South East Asia, to the Bay area as a CFP. Michelle Balog (Michelle #2) went from USC film school to New York City to the Bay area as a Real Estate Agent and Stacey Fleece went from USC in sports management to finance to hedge funds to the Bay area as a mortgage broker. All I can say is aren’t women amazing!
