The Dinner that became a Master Mind

Since I'm in Colorado at CORE and my sister-in-law, Danae, lives just a hop-skip-jump away, we made arrangements to meet for dinner on Friday night at a local Japanese restaurant. The timing was perfect; I had just completed my first client experience and was pretty much babbling. With D and her wonderful friend, Allison, we planned a nice evening of playing catch-up and just having a fun girl's night out.

Well, things don't always go as planned, and our little girl's night out turned into much, much more - and it was major FUN!

D and Allison have been entrepreneurs their entire careers, and I'm moving in that direction after too many years to count in the corporate world. So we started riffing about our different businesses and what works and what doesn't, and pretty soon, without even trying, we all started channelling master marketeers and were bouncing ideas off of one another like ping pong balls.

Man, we were on a roll! By the time we were done, we all had ideas for providing our customers with value for their interest, free gifts, new ways of presenting our products, and I think somewhere in there we may have even solved a couple of the world's ills.

I don't know what was in the Sushi, but I'd like another helping, please!
