#TBT!
Eight years ago, we had our first conference- To INFINITEA and BEYOND!
We held it at the Ancaster Fairgrounds, which is essentially a barn. We glammed up that barn BIG time. By the time it was done, it had looked magical.
A month before this event, we had pitched our idea to the five Dragons' from the hit TV show Dragons' Den, the Canadian version of Shark Tank in the US.
We knew how explosive it would be for the company, and it was.
No one outside our office knew about it; we wanted to keep it a surprise for our independent consultants.
I'll never forget the excitement on the faces of everyone in that crowd, and they knew what was about to happen to their businesses.
All I wanted for them was growth, recognition, and a bigger income.
That same day, we announced some new online software features that would allow them to work their businesses more efficiently.
Three years prior, they had been manually writing out orders and MAILING them in Via Canada Post. Can you imagine that now? #snailmail
It seems so fitting that eight years to nearly the day, we are embarking on a whole new software journey that will bring even more explosive growth for this little hobby I started in my fruit cellar. ??
??SIPOLOGY 2.0?? I'm READY FOR YA!
Through ups, downs, and everything in between, no matter how big or small your dreams are, you can achieve them with patience, perseverance, and resilience.
And with amazing people who believe in you no matter what.
Remember, nothing significant happens overnight...it can take years.
Talking from experience ;-)
Slay your day.
