Wooo hoooo! I’m celebrating joining the Vancouver Board of Trade this spring and my first Round Table breakfast meeting on wondrous Wednesday May 21, 2014
VBOT has told us all to be ready to meet 30 or more, new and seasoned members, before office hours even begin! Very excited to hear what my co-participants do at the heart of British Columbia’s business community.
Post event UPDATE: Breakfast was yum. Orientation light & fun with some GREAT benefits to check out ASAP. I did indeed meet 30+ folks of the 100 or so in the room, as promised by VBOT before 8:45 a.m! Lots of energy. Great ideas. Like minded business women and men looking to support each other.
LOTS of other newbies. Wore my name tag for the first time, with pride, to have joined a commercial and also conscious community.
Kudos to the organizers, the membership reps in the room and the volunteer ambassadors!
My gift to mark the 1st of many tales to tell of the VBOT members and team is a chapter excerpt of work in progress on my upcoming book on accessing both the Fun & Profit of the Power of Storytelling @ Work.

- A practical question template to craft your first draft …and so your own “million dollar” story. Spark your imagination so that you profit from your very own profile!
WHY am I passionate about sharing this with you?
Because in serving my clients, whether with ‘guerilla’ sized fast action or big budget marketing and publicity strategies for 25 + years I noticed one thing – repeatedly. A critical hurtle I’ve had to help hundreds of clients get over in order to get their messages to the right market, in any medium, was their – missing – misplaced or – needlessly minimized STORY.
Sounds obviously simple, ah?
Yet, when we worked together on the right combination, we unlocked one of the most powerful tools to position their message to current and prospective customers, partners and to media.
That #1 foundational story also rallied their organization’s internal stakeholders – staff and associates.
Their unique and powerful story became a catalyst for profit, for an elevated industry profile and for media activation.
Why not join in to get started with crafting YOUR own story.
Guaranteed you’ll be delighted with what you discover about yourself. And, we can help you extend the life of that story and to leverage it. Do it now..and drop your name in the box up top.
