The Encore Society Manifesto: Why We’re Here
Welcome to the best seat in the house! We (I) created The Encore Society because we believe your 50s, 60s, and beyond shouldn't be a "fading out"—they should be the headlining act. To keep the vibe right, here is our "Playbook" for how we hang out: 1. We Prioritize the "Social" in Social Media. This isn't a networking group; it’s a lifestyle club. We are here to talk about the things that actually matter: our latest travel treks, the hobbies that keep us sane, our families, and the pets that run our households. 2. Laughter is our North Star. If it’s not fun, we aren't doing it. Expect bad jokes, funny "business" ideas (like Vito’s Concrete Shoes), and a zero-pressure environment. If you’re stressed, you’re doing it wrong. 3. The "Hobbyist" Approach to Business. Many of us have a lifetime of wisdom we aren't ready to retire yet. We do talk about building small, fun projects or lifestyle businesses—but we treat them like a vintage car in the garage. We tinker, we enjoy the process, and we use the profits to fund our next vacation. 4. No Corporate Jargon Allowed. Leave the "synergy" and "KPIs" at the door. We speak human here. We’re just friends sharing what we know and enjoying the ride. The Goal: To build a community where you feel energized, connected, and inspired to make your "Encore" the most rewarding part of your story. Are you in? Drop a "YES" in the comments if you're ready to put the fun back into social! 👇
