Phoenix, AZ, March 18, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Join members of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO), Phoenix Chapter, and their guests on Wednesday, April 13 as they focus on “Controlling the Purse.” The luncheon event features a fireside chat with Phoenix Businesswoman Christie Kerner, led by Phaedra Earnhardt, NAWBO Phoenix President Elect.

More than 20 years ago, Kerner helped launch a company that became a multi-million dollar business within two years. Since then, she has helped hundreds of entrepreneurs create more success.

In addition to her own entrepreneurial endeavors and her consulting practice, Kerner has worked in Fortune 100 companies where she consistently won awards for identifying, creating and implementing efficient processes that leveraged technology to lower expenses and drive revenue. Her deep understanding of both human behavior and business make her an uncanny expert at marketing, and her ability to translate strategy into tactics ensures things get done.
