Happy Sunday Syndicate Fam! I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I have been doing some brainstorming lately on what I want to see the Success Syndicate become and would love any input you have. I would love to know what YOU are hoping to get out of this that you are NOT getting at the moment. What is missing that would inspire you to visit this community more and participate? There's nothing wrong with asking for what you need, that goes for business AND the time you spend in the communities that are there to support you. Please take the time to answer in the comments and in the survey. What Would Make You Visit and Participate More In The Success Syndicate?

If you haven't taken our community improvement survey, please take a second when you have a chance. The link is here: https://www.skool.com/successsyndicate/how-can-we-improve-the-success-syndicate and you can leave comments there or here on what you want to see happening in the Success Syndicate in the future. I have some changes in store, and would really like your feedback and suggestions. So far, 2 people are looking for a Referral component so I am working on a way to make that happen. I am open to all suggestions and I appreciate you taking the very brief survey. https://www.skool.com/successsyndicate/how-can-we-improve-the-success-syndicate

Hey Syndicate Fam, Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend. I did a little sneak away for date night/day to Niagara Falls, Canada yesterday and the weather was horrible but the adventure was a lot of fun. Welcome to our new members: @Christina Joy is in Florida and is working with business owners who feel stuck or overwhelmed to get unstuck. @Benjamin Zumsteg is a luxury brand strategist by day and an entrepreneur who created his own energy/performance drink company by night. You can check out his interview in our latest newsletter. Welcome both of you and if you have a second, introduce yourselves and tell us a little more about you. For Monday Motivation this week, I am bringing in a twist on what @Art Smith shared with us a couple weeks back. This time, instead of "Googling" yourself, if you are using a 'Chat Bot' of any kind, ask it the following Prompt: "Based on everything we've talked about, what am I genuinely good at? What makes me unique? Be honest, not polite." I think this is a great tool to see how your messaging is working and coming across to others. If you're open to it, share your answers in the comments below. Have a great week everyone!!

I'm Christina! I am a business operations consultant, owner of a community for business owners who feel overwhelmed and want to get unstuck together (especially ADHD business owners like me), cat mom of two, and a full-time off-grid bus dweller currently parked near St. Augustine, Florida. I'm here because I'm queer (that rhymes 🙌) and I want to collaborate with and support other LGBTQ business owners. I met @Scott Fullerton in another community a while back and meant to join then. Glad to be here meow! This month my goal is to consistently market my consulting business authentically and in a way that doesn't feel icky or like a chore. BTW... big Star Wars fan. ✨

Hello Syndicate Family, it's time for our Weekly Newsletter. Thanks for being part of this amazing group of LGBTQ entrepreneurs, business owners, creators, organizations and thought leaders. First up, I had a fantastic interview with Ben Zumsteg, brand strategist by day, beverage innovator and new company founder by night. His new product came to market 3 months ago after two years of hard work, blood, sweat, and tears to bring his DISCO FIZZ Energy Drink to the lgbtq bar and lounge scene in New York City, and across the nation soon. This was a fun interview talking about the development of his product from that first inspiration, to market. I know you will enjoy this interview and hopefully come away inspired in your own lgbtq business journey. If you missed last week's Success Chat on Thursday, member @Aidan McClain did a master class on SEO, (search engine optimization), and it's available on the "Discussion Forums" tab. If you are looking how to get your website or social media noticed, learn these tips and tricks of the trade, from someone who has made digital marketing a profession. If you haven't checked out Aidan's own passion project, the online "Hollywood Rebound," magazine, be sure to check it out and his fantastic website he built over at https://www.hollywoodrebound.com Coming up on this Thursday's Success Chat, member @Mike Bennion-Rowe, from Torn Box Productions will be sharing his story and background in video production and more. This Thursday, April 23rd at 10am Eastern Time. I also posted this weekend, my interview with Syndicate Member @Jonathan Shuffield, who talks about his new lgbtq sitcom that goes into production this Summer. The entire production will take place in Spokane, Washington, and will truly be a labor of love from that community and our lgbtq community, as Jonny starts his crowdfunding campaign soon to raise funds and offer fun perks on this exciting new project.
