Janice Porter | The Real 50 over 50

About me

For Janice, it’s ALL about relationships. She has an innate curiosity, which she has leveraged into building business relationships and teaches others how to do the same. Her passion is working with people who want to build their businesses through relationship marketing and networking – and she does that using online and offline strategies.

LinkedIn training is a huge part of Janice’s business.  She believes all business professionals need to have a magnetic LinkedIn profile and that LinkedIn is THE platform for attracting new clients, strategic partners, and referrals.

Staying connected, and nurturing relationships comes next – and Janice shows clients how to implement a “tangible touch” follow‑up system to do just that.

Janice really values the friendships and business relationships she makes, and when she meets someone new is always thinking: “How may I support you?”

What do you do and why do you do it?

‘m all about Relationships! I really feel that people are always at the heart of what I do. I consult and train on building and nurturing relationships for business. I use LinkedIn as a tool for building relationships and I use an online greeting card system for nurturing relationships to stay top of mind with those relationships – creating a steady stream of collaborators and referrals – all based on trust. I like to spread the word about showing people you care and appreciate them.

What changed for you after age 50?

I focused more on the things that bring me joy and found it easier to say No when I don’t want to do something.

What would you tell the 20 or 30-year-old YOU?

You have all the answers within you. Be a sponge and a lifelong learner. Be kind and curious.

What do you think you’ll tell yourself in retrospect at the end of your life?

You have all the answers within you. Be a sponge and a lifelong learner. Be kind and curious.

What impact do you think increased visibility can have on your business?

I think it can increase the number of people that I can help and teach – as I continue to spread the word about the importance of relationships and showing people you care.

Who or what inspires you and why?

Right now I’m inspired by how quickly and eloquently Kamala Harris stepped up to the plate in her quest for the U.S. Presidency. I’m not even American – but it’s hard to ignore her class, her stamina, and her genuine passion for what she does.

Something else I’d like to share

I think it’s important to pay attention to mature women – we have wisdom and can manage multiple tasks … and the phrase I use a lot …. Stay Connected & Be Remembered!
