THE ACCELERATED EXCHANGE
If you’re an online business owner, tired of endless networking events that drain your energy, this is the place for you to find strategic connections that drive real results.
Running your online business can feel lonely AF. Maybe you're crushing it behind the scenes with client work, but there's still something missing. Deep down you know there's untapped potential in building strategic partnerships, but between client calls, your dog who's ready for another walk, and your kid who's ready to be picked up, traditional networking feels like extra work that you don't have time for (yuck!).
Does building a network feel like a second full-time job you’re not even getting paid for?
What if it didn’t have to?
You've tried random coffee chats, awkward Zoom networking events, and maybe even joined some online communities—but nothing seems to create those genuine connections that actually lead to opportunities. Or perhaps you’ve neglected networking while focusing on your current clients, only to panic when those leads eventually dry up!
What you need is a strategic blueprint tailored to YOUR business and personality.
The Accelerated Exchange VIP Intensive is your shortcut to meaningful connections. Ready to make networking WAY more fun?

Networking shouldn't feel forced. It should feel like you.
BUT HOW DO YOU GET COMFORTABLE?
Most networking advice assumes everyone's an extrovert who thrives in crowded rooms and non-stop conversations. I understand that your personality and energy are unique—your networking strategy should be too.
The Accelerated Exchange creates a bespoke strategy built around who you are, how you work best, and what your business actually needs to grow through strategic relationships.
No more awkward conversations or draining events—just intentional connections aligned with your most authentic self. That’s exactly how it should be.
SAY ADIOS TO GENERIC NETWORKING ADVICE AND HELLO TO YOUR CUSTOM CONNECTION STRATEGY!
Hi, I’m Stacy, Your Lead Connection Mentor & Strategist
My unique background in relationship-driven industries helped me develop a distinctive approach to networking that honors individual personalities while producing powerful business results. I specialize in helping online entrepreneurs who seek to build meaningful connections without the energy-suck of traditional networking strategies.
After 15 years immersed in mix of sales experiences ranging from hospitality to healthcare, I discovered that business success isn't just about what you know—it's about cultivating relationships that create opportunities for everyone involved.
As an ambivert myself, I deeply understand:
The value of quality connections over quantity
The importance of energy management in networking
How to foster comfortable environments for relationships to thrive
The power of strategic, mutually beneficial partnerships
Connections That Transform Businesses
These aren't random networking stories—they're the result of intentional, strategic connection-building that focuses on genuine compatibility and mutual benefit. The Accelerated Exchange gives you the foundation to create these same types of transformative relationships for your business.
My approach isn't just about theory—it's about making real introductions that create tangible opportunities:
Meet Your Business Implementation Mentor, Emily Bissen - Founder of Blue Heron Business Partners
Emily is a business opportunity strategist and the founder of Blue Heron Business Partners who specializes in turning strategy into action. As your implementation guide, she ensures the connections you build through this intensive translate into tangible business growth.
With expertise in helping entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses that align with their values and lifestyle, Emily brings a unique blend of strategic thinking and practical application to The Accelerated Exchange. Her superpower lies in helping clients confidently implement their plans, refine their approach, and overcome obstacles as they build meaningful professional relationships.
AND HER CLIENTS’ RESULTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES:
Woman-Owned Creative Agency: Emily helped the owner transition from "Me to We," resulting in a QUADRUPLED revenue over two years while reducing work hours from 40+ to less than 30 per week—so she could be a more present mom.
Service-Based Business Owner: Working with Emily, this client grew revenue by 3x, increased pricing, and gained clarity on her most profitable service offerings, resulting in more qualified leads finding her through Google and arriving "ready to buy."
Emily works primarily with expert-based business owners and creative founders who are ready to level up their connections and opportunities. Her approach combines authentic relationship-building with strategic business development, ensuring your networking efforts directly support your business goals.
Through her guidance, you'll not only create a robust connection strategy but actually put it into practice—turning your networking blueprint into real business relationships that drive growth and create opportunities.
Why I Partnered With Emily
After years of sales training experiences where I'd leave energized but then struggle to implement everything once back at my desk, I knew The Accelerated Exchange needed to be different. I didn't want to stuff you with information for two days and then leave you to figure it out alone. That's why I brought Emily on board—to ensure you're supported long after our intensive ends.
We clicked right away because we both believe networking should feel natural, not forced. Emily brings the perfect balance of encouragement and accountability, making sure you actually use the connections blueprint we create together.
What I love about working with Emily is how she genuinely cares about people's success. She's supportive yet practical, enthusiastic yet focused—exactly what you need when taking those sometimes uncomfortable first steps to expand your network.
While I help you build the foundation and strategy during our 2-day intensive, Emily ensures you put it into practice. Our partnership means you get both the roadmap AND the navigator to help you reach your destination.

Why this beats binging all those random networking resources?
Real solutions tailored to you.
You could spend months consuming generic networking advice, watching videos, and reading books that aren't tailored to your situation.
Or you could invest two days in an intensive that directly addresses your specific connection challenges and provides customized solutions to achieve your networking goals.
This is why I call it The Accelerated Exchange—it fast-tracks the networking journey that members of my online community (The Exchange) typically experience over several months. Instead of gradually building your comfort and strategy through community participation alone and waiting for our events, this intensive gives you the blueprint, implementation support, and personalized guidance to accelerate your results.
This isn't theoretical—it's practical, personalized, and designed to get you results based on who you actually are and what your business truly needs.

Building a network of connections you can actually count on doesn’t just happen by accident.
It requires intention, strategy, and someone who’s been there before to guide you. With The Accelerated Exchange, you get double the expertise in your corner!
You’ll Also Get:
A connection strategy designed for who you actually are—not who networking experts say you should be
Minimal time investment so you can get started quickly
Implementation guidance that ensures your connections translate to real opportunities
A community that continues to fuel your growth long after our intensive concludes
The confidence to approach potential partners knowing exactly what value you bring to the table
What Becomes Possible After The Accelerated Exchange:
Speaking Opportunities: Develop relationships that lead to podcast appearances, summit invitations, and guest teaching positions
Co-Creation Partnerships: Find the perfect collaborators for joint products, services, or events that expand your reach
Strategic Referral Networks: Build a system where ideal clients find you through trusted recommendations
Affiliate Partnerships: Create passive income streams through connections with complementary businesses
Business Bestie Connections: Develop genuine relationships with peers who provide support, encouragement, and growth opportunities

Stop feeling disconnected in your business.
This isn't about attending every virtual event or forcing yourself to "work the room." It's about strategic relationship-building that feels natural and produces real results for your business.
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF HAVING HUNDREDS OF “CONNECTIONS” BUT NO ONE YOU CAN ACTUALLY COUNT ON FOR A PICK-ME-UP, SOLID BUSINESS ADVICE, OR GENUINE COLLABORATION.
