WHAT’S IN THE CURRICULUM?

We worked a lot on mindset, CEO thinking, knowing your customer and bringing them to your front door in BC Sequoia.

Now that the customer is here, what do we do? How do we get them on our list. Why do we get them on our list? What do we do with them after that? How do we sell without being salesy? How do we generate revenue without being “the lady that’s always sending me offers”? How do we write content that resonates, engages and makes them want to come back?

How do turn these customers into fans and into cheerleaders? We’re going to spend the entire day perfecting that. When you go home at the end of the day you should have a strategy in place, emails written, an idea of where you’re going AND a product you can sell. . . immediately.

WHERE ARE WE GOING TO MEET?

In each city our goal is to find a tech start-up who would love to host the event at their space. We’ve met in cool locations across the country – so if you’re looking for normal – this isn’t it. We’ve met at the headquarters of Ahalogy and will be meeting the headquarters of Swagbucks.

When we don’t find a tech startup, we do find cool, small companies. In Milwaukee we were in a coffee factory, in Atlanta and Anaheim a co-working space, in Seattle the conference facility of a car wash company, and in Asheville a christian retreat. Oh yeah, and no worries about the extras because at each site we’re providing snacks, lunch, beverages, and of course, that much needed wi-fi.

In Nashville we’re meeting at the All-American Pest Control Conference Facility, Again!
