TEN
MarketDone is proud to host (TEN) Tallahassee Entrepreneurs Network:
WHAT IS TEN?
A dynamic every-other-month workshop and collaboration opportunity to learn new ways to build relationships and hone networking skills. We are building a community. In addition to live events, we encourage you to interact on our TEN Facebook site.
Participants will apply what they learn with other professionals on site, in real time. There are new people with new energy every time, and a great number of repeat attendees! This is not your typical networking event!
Similar to how Toastmasters provides a safe place to practice public speaking skills, TEN provides a supportive and fun opportunity to see through new “networking eyes.”

How is TEN different from other networking opportunities in Tallahassee?
We are a networking workshop where you’ll learn something new and then practice it five minutes after you learn it!
It will challenge us (in a supportive and safe way) to get out of our comfort zone and do something different than the traditional meet and greet protocol.
Who is the Tallahassee entrepreneur hosting TEN?
Deanna A. Mims, President of MarketDone, specializes in marketing and PR management for entrepreneurs, small businesses and non-profits.
TEN was born as a meeting-place of the minds, a gathering to learn from other business owners, hone your networking ability, gain experience and contacts, identify your strengths and weaknesses and sharpen your hard and soft skills for greater success!
I believe in collaboration not competition. Passionate about connecting people authentically, MarketDone and TEN create opportunities for clarity, joy and growth. I invite you to become a part of the Tallahassee Entrepreneur Community – we are building something important.
What they’re saying about TEN:
“I have long believed in the power of networking and building community relationships. These relationships often lead to better business and certainly contribute to a feeling of well-being and being more connected within Tallahassee. TEN explores how to make these relationships even more fulfilling and authentic. For folks that have been fearful of networking, TEN provides the tools to make this process easier and even fun. For those of us that consider ourselves to be strong in this area, Deanna shares perspectives that give networking a whole new meaning.”
– Karen Cooley, North Florida Financial
“I thought it was awesome!”
– Jo Shoupe, photographer
“Lots of fun! Always great to meet new people!”
– Tocoi Arthur, Socially Influence
I just wanted to let you know that I followed up on the contacts I received at the TEN meeting. I met with the Art Education Director at LeMoyne and she was very excited about the classes I have developed. All I needed was a tiny push so I thank you for your support and advice!
- Jennifer Kandel, The Creative Goddess
