Callout: @Vidar!
We barely talked yet I know that you were at nearly every talk. What did YOU get out of the meetup?
(Nothing like a little pressure, eh?)
GAH! I'm totally kicking myself for not chatting with you @Iwokeup . Your presentation was fantastic, by the way! I was just so totally overwhelmed by all the awesomeness that was given out during the meetup that I've had to take some time to process it all.
Honestly, going to the meetup was one of the hardest things I've done. If you looked up "introvert" in the dictionary you would have found my picture there... but I got scared and didn't show up for the photo XD Seriously, getting myself to go down and hang out in a room full of people I'd never met was absolutely terrifying. But after getting to meetup and listening to so many inspiring, down to earth, encouraging people I was so glad to have pushed myself out of the hotel room when all I wanted to do was hide in my bed.
Since getting home I've been grinding to find manufacturers. I'm definitely dropping the private label stuff, the easy way just won't cut it. I've really struggled with trying to do everything by myself, but after the eye-opening presentation about using VA's, it's like there's a light at the end of the tunnel! New logo, new website design, packaging designs, help writing copy are all on my VA list now so I can focus on working on the important things like Brand Recognition a la @Eskil and working on Branding using @AllenCrawley's advice.
Going back to the job this week was rough. I'm now literally allergic to my job... either the hand scrub, the Avagard, or the gloves I have to wear in the OR are making my hands blister up all over (I'd post a pic, but it isn't pretty). This new turn of events is just pushing me even harder to get my business running and get my butt out of the OR this year.
Thank you again to all the wonderful presenters and attendees that were so open about their processes. My goal is to return to the Summit next year and be able to give back.
