OC3

The Zoom fatigue is real... ?? Virtual events are OUT. Over the past few years, we've learned a LOT about community building. And one thing has become crystal clear: people crave REAL, in-person connection. To be transparent, we've seen a significant drop in engagement with our virtual events. It turns out, nothing can truly replace the energy and magic that happens when you're in the same room, sharing ideas and building relationships face-to-face. That's why we're excited to announce that OC3 is IN-PERSON! ?? We've already seen incredible success with in-person events in the Bay Area and Austin. Now, we're looking to bring that same energy to our satellite locations across the country: ??Dallas? ??L.A.? ??Seattle? ??Boston? ??Chicago? ??Las Vegas? ??Houston? ??Portland? ??Salt Lake City? ??San Antonio? ??San Diego ??Toronto ??Santa Clara ??Fresno ??Atlantic City ??Kailua-Kona ??Redding Imagine this: 75+ business owners, connecting over coffee, collaborating in workshops, and building genuine relationships at IN-PERSON social events. Whether you're in one of our major hubs or a smaller city, we want you to have the opportunity to connect with fellow entrepreneurs. We'll even be leveraging Young Han's?extensive network so that every OC3 member has a chance to connect with like-minded individuals in their area. This is what OC3 was founded on — REAL connections. It's time to get back to our roots and build the thriving community we all crave. What are your thoughts on in-person vs. virtual events in 2025? We want to hear from you in the comments! ??

Ever wondered what it's like inside the OC3 community? ?? Here's a sneak peek!?? Our Slack group is our central hub where our members, coaches, and—of course—our founder, Young Han, connect daily. We share resources, deliver updates, lift each other up, and, yes, celebrate wins and learn from our experiences. It's not just a group; it's our CREW.??

Unmanaged stress = less money & less productivity. Stress is inevitable in business. But letting it affect your business is optional. Here's 3 apps we love for stress management: Headspace?- Guided meditations and mindfulness exercises for stress, sleep, and focus. Calm?- Meditations, sleep stories, and relaxing music for improved sleep and reduced anxiety. Happify?- Science-based games and activities to help build happiness and resilience. Find what works for you - meditation, exercise, nature, deep breaths. All apps are linked in the comments below! ?? What's your go-to stress management technique?

Stop wasting time and money on ineffective marketing. Most small businesses struggle with marketing because they lack a system. At OC3, we've crafted a system to apply for all areas of business. We call it the Owners Manual Framework. And we've used it to create this Marketing Mastery Checklist for YOU. What is the Owners Manual Framework? It's a proven methodology and blueprint designed to help small business owners systematize their operations, gain control of their time, and achieve sustainable growth. The Marketing Mastery Checklist applies this framework specifically to marketing, following this process: ?? Brainstorm? ?? Prioritize? ?? Test? ?? Analyze? ?? Optimize This isn't theory. It's a practical framework for generating leads and growing your business. Download the FREE OC3 Marketing Mastery Checklist attached to this post!

If you didn't know already, big things are happening at OC3! ?? Recently,?Maeve Driscoll?hosted an Ask-Me-Anything session introducing our new website and brand, built around our 3 C's: Club, Cohort, and Coaching. Take a look at our new website to see how we've evolved to better support small business owners like you! Linked in comments below.

We're excited to kick off 2025 with a major announcement... What began as a simple idea - a group chat for small business owners - has evolved into something so much more. Owners Club has been totally rebranded and revamped... and to reflect this, our new name is OC3! So, what is OC3? It's the culmination of our journey, driven by the needs of our incredible community. Our founder, Young Han, started a small group message called "Owners Club." That group grew into a thriving Slack community, where small business owners connect, share resources, and support each other every day. As our community expanded, we listened to our members' needs. This led to Owners Coaching and Owners Cohort - tailored programs designed to provide individualized and small group coaching. At the heart of it all is OC3. It's not just a name; it's our operating system, our secret sauce, the must-have tool to help you truly own your time. OC3 is the catalyst for positive change in small businesses everywhere. Whether you're drawn to the Club, the Coaching, or the Cohort, we're here to help you work smarter, live better, and achieve your goals. This is more than just a new name - it's a reflection of our growth, our commitment to our members, and our vision for the future. Head to our new website to learn more about our origin story and the power of OC3:?https://www.oc-3.com/ Here's to a transformative 2025! Let's make it our best year yet.
