The Mic is ON.🎙️
S E C R E T S A U C E Tip of the Week💡
Business Developers • Marketers • Event Producers • Speakers • Entrepreneurs
When planning an event [I've planned around 10 in the past 12 months and I've been producing, scripting, and creating events for over 15 years]- I don't think of it as an event at all. 💯
Forgive me for being a fan but since I was a girl, I'd reference some of my favorite artists: what would or do with this opportunity or stage? 👑
And therein lies the answer and para mi ( 's really got my espanol going ☺️).
You see what we in the world is also what we seek to create. 🎨
What I love about those 2 artists and probably the only earthly thing that I have in common with them (I mean I can dance too buuttt... yeah 😆):
We want to CREATE an EXPERIENCE. 🎬
Here are some questions that I must answer definitively if I decide to execute a vision- otherwise I'm not going to do it because it's going to be a half job and not a full immersion of my gifts, talents and passions (cultivating those is how we pay ourselves back for our time and energy💡):
🎤Why in the world is what I'm inviting someone to more important than their client, their child, their phone call or their favorite restaurant or park that they could go to during that time? I mean seriously, what the heck am I putting on that is so great that they should put any 1 of those things down, get buttoned up, get in their car and drive to what we've got going on?
🎤What are some things my audience may TRULY be seeking out of business and or life? How am I going to make SURE they've gained some part of that while here for whatever time they have gathered?
🎤When do I feel like "that was a waste of my time" or just about "showing up and showing face" or just "more of the same?" HOW can I prevent others from feeling that way? 🤔
🎤As the host, what tone am I seeking to set, where am I going to bring the most energy, how do I get out of my comfort zone to help other people get out of theirs'?
🎤How do I SHOW that this is not all about me, or my company, or my agenda... this is about ALL of Us... creating Win-Wins and how we collectively win, grow and shine greater by getting to know one another, who we are and what we do
✍️When people leave here I want them to say....
My prayer is that....
Whether 5 people, or 500 people show up- I'm going to show all the way up with every single thing planned.... AND HAVE FUN! 💃🏾
That's a blueprint for meaningful moments! I promise ya. Go be great!!!
