🚂 Success is not only about business. Sometimes success is building authentic friendships,creating meaningful memories,and surrounding yourself with good people who genuinely support each other. At our recent Northlandz gathering,many real friendships were built and one of our guys suggested a trip to Pennsylvania to experience the legendary Big Boy 4014. Within 24 hours,we made it happen. 🌈 Now members from NJ,NYC,and Pennsylvania are coming together for a friendship focused day trip to Scranton,PA during America’s 250 year celebration events. The experience includes:🚂 Big Boy 4014 steam engine experience🍜 Hibachi lunch🍨 Ice cream dessert🤝 Genuine friendships💬 Meaningful conversation📸 Shared memories and adventure This is the kind of authentic community energy we believe matters. 📅 Monday June 15,2026⏰ 10:45AM–4:00PM📍 Scranton,Pennsylvania 🎟️ Tickets:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/gay-guys-chasing-big-boy-4014-lunch-tickets-1990254243017 🌐 Join our Guys Gay Spectrum newsletter community:https://gardenstategaysocials.com Good friends.

Happy HumpDay Syndicate Family! I hope you are cruising through the week so far. On Wednesdays, we take a little time to brag upon ourselves and do a little self promotion, with some fun thrown in along the way. Today I'm inspired by my 7,000 mile roadtrip a few years back, where we circled the country from here in Ohio, to the West Coast and back. We saw silly and fun sites like "The Future Birthplace of James T. Kirk (Riverside, IA)," "39 Vintage Cars at Carhenge (Alliance, NE)," and "A Huge Sundial under the Redwood Trees at The Sundial Bridge at Turtle Bay (Redding, CA)." We also took in some historic sites, like "The Painted Desert and The Grand Canyon in Arizona," "Alcatraz Island in San Francisco," and "Mount Rushmore in South Dakota." So Today's Visibility Boost Assignment is to share your 4 choices for your own personal "Mount Rushmore." Who are the four icons you would put up there? They can be Celebrities, Personal Heroes, Spouses, Mentors, Business Leaders, Etc.. You can write them down or have AI create them for you. Then share your personal pitch, as to why YOUR business should be etched in stone for your product or service. Have some fun with it and enjoy the rest of the week.

Thank you @Scott Fullerton . I just received my Syndicate Bingo prize. Looking forward to starting my Tuesday with a tasty cup of 'gay' coffee.

We're growing again Syndicate Fam! Please welcome @Amanda Millar to the group. She's from the UK and works particularly in Scotland do online and in person service in terms of training coaching speaking etc.. Her skills include being a Leadership & inclusion advisor and ADHD coach, embedding inclusive practice into culture, leadership and performance. Please give her a warm welcome and Amanda please start a post to let us know a bit more about you. For Today's "Tuesday Tool For Growth," I'm sharing “The 3-2-1 Loyalty Loop” I can't tell you how many times I get phone calls from past contractors asking me use their service again or get something new, especially in the Spring/Early Summer. This includes window installers, landscapers, kitchen upgraders, etc.. and it's one way to grow your business, but cold calling is the worst!! Most businesses only contact customers when they want a sale. However, to build a strong community and lay a foundation of trust with your customers, stay visible between purchases all year round. Here’s today’s retention tool: Every Week: - 3 Check-Ins: Send 3 quick messages to past customers or clients just to ask how things are going. Do not try to sell them anything. Tell them something reminded you of them and you wanted to say Hi, and see how they are doing. - 2 Spotlights: Publicly celebrate 2 customers, members, or collaborators on social media. You can respond to one of their social media posts and congratulate them or tell them why the post is good news. Just sing their praises and say why you were happy to work with them. - 1 Surprise Value Add: Share one free tip, template, discount, referral, or helpful resource with your audience. This is where having a newsletter comes in handy or a mailing list. Just share the offer and let them come to you. As always, measure what offer's drives the most responses. Why it works: People stay loyal to businesses that make them feel seen, not sold to.
