Isn’t it interesting how opportunities just show up when you’re committed to an outcome?
As you know, less than two years ago, I stepped boldly into my Contribution in the World and transformed an old building into Business Innovation Lab Coworking and Conference facility. It seemed like a natural extension of the mentoring and organizational development we’ve been doing with businesses for over 17 years.
I’ve been wondering how we could further expand our offerings when, out of the blue, an opportunity showed up. Sometimes unexpected opportunities just show up and you take inspired action.
So, I took action and applied for a FedEx small business grant and could really use your help. If you’re wanting to be part of the ripple effect we’re creating, I would really appreciate your vote HERE.
(Check out the snazzy video we created with the help of Brainstream Creative.) We need a lot of votes to win and you can vote more than one time.
There’s another way to be a part of the ripple effect that I talk about in my Fed Ex video, too. Simply by registering for any of our workshops or mentoring programs, like our upcoming Create Your Signature Program, you become part of the ripple effect. You see, we donate a portion of your registration to support our Charity of Choice, Camp Casey, a nonprofit that provides horseback riding programs to children with cancer and rare blood disorders.
Create Your Signature Program is a two-day practicum that has you move from thinking about how all of your programs and services come together to actually creating a unique way to distinguish your company in the marketplace. You will design your distinctive approach so you stand apart from everyone else offering similar programs, products or services. You will bridge the gap between seemingly disparate areas of your business.
One of our attendees wondered how to connect her retail and wholesale businesses. Through the one-on-one mentoring Welcome Call, she identified the synergies between two very different areas of her business and discovered a pathway to expand the wholesale side of the business.
This practicum is expertly designed from the moment you register. You’re mentored through the process of designing an experience your clients will enjoy—from enrollment, continuity, and through to completion.
If you’re inspired to be of the ongoing ripple effect we’re creating at the Business Innovation Lab, I invite you to register today for Create Your Signature Program to be held on March 28-29, 2019 at the Business Innovation Lab in Livonia, Michigan.
Create a great life,

American Author, Kenneth Blanchard wrote, “When you’re interested in doing something, you do it only when it’s convenient. When you’re committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results.” His words are profound. When goal setting (as many people do at the beginning of the year), this quote prompts the question, are you interested or committed?
When you research the highly successful innovators, like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, or Stephanie Louise Kwolek (inventor of Kevlar and National Inventor Hall of Famer), it’s easy to assume they tap into something. How is it that they create ideas that change how we operate in the world?
