Greetings CBC Members,

 

Thank you for being a part of the growing Conscious Business Connections community!

 

CBC is a network of business people committed to promoting and protecting the interests of conscious businesses around the globe. Conscious businesses are ones that operate mindfully in the realms of self, culture and nature. CBC members lead and live their lives with integrity and altruism.

 

I trust you have seen value from the community – education and connections made at events, referrals from me and other members, and more! 

 

I am incredibly grateful for the many introductions to CBC. Now that we have 70 members strong, I am able to implement the next phase of this business. 

In order to give due attention to CBC, I have decided to decrease my working hours at Auctoris (my corporate gig where I’ve been blessed to work for 10 years) to 4 days per week. From here forward I am dedicating Wednesdays to CBC. This is a personal financial risk for me, but I trust and pray it will be rewarded with the additional time I will have to put towards the business. Plus with all your generous support and commitment to the CBC mission and vision.

 

With this schedule change, I will be able to take more discovery and strategy calls, as well as increase my networking and strategic partnerships with organizations that align with the vision of CBC. 

 

I am also making adjustments to the monthly event offerings and the flow of member onboarding (see outline below). Many of these ideas were beta-tested last year and you may have been one to receive the value of the support I provided to you, from business strategy discussion, hosting an event to provide you a stage to hone in on your craft or providing an audience for you to gain more clients. These beta-tests were well worth my pro-bono time as they have allowed me to recognize what is most supportive to CBC members and adjust the strategy moving forward. 

 

Starting January 2022, here’s the set monthly event schedule:

• • Conscious Coffee Conversations (Denver-Metro) | First Wednesday of each month, 8-9am MT.
    Gain insights from Kristin, CBC members and prospective members on how they are growing their business with purpose.
  • Virtual Educational Webinar (discount for members) | Second Wednesday of each month, 12-1pm MT.
    These will be offered at a discount to CBC Members. Speakers have been defined for January & February. If you are interested in offering a webinar to the community, please contact me.
  • Members Roundtable | Third Wednesday of each month, 3-430pm.
    Member presentations and conscious relationship building activities. Alternating virtual and in-person. The in-person events will include a mixer following with prospective members.
  • Virtual Networking | Fourth Friday of each month, 9-10am MT.
  • FUN Wellness Event (Denver-Metro, discount for members) | Twice Monthly, often on a weekend.
    At every opportunity these events will be held outside, in nature. Yoga, conscious dance, paddle boarding, hiking, skiing, tennis/pickleball, golf, river tubing, concerts, escape rooms, events with pets, kids and spouses too! If you are interested in teaching a class, please contact me. 

Other Events:

• Targeted Mastermind Groups (discount for members) with a foundation of philanthropy, business startup, or collective support. 

 

Members will continue to receive calendar invitations to events that are relevant to your preferences. 

 

Member Onboarding Flow. Let’s all get caught up with the steps so I am better able to support you and your business growth:

• 1. Login to the website. Make sure you are able to sign in to view the Membership Directory. When you are signed in this allows for member discounts on all events. Conscious Coffee Conversations and Member Roundtables are no cost/dutch events. 
     
  2. Custom profile on the Membership Directory. If you haven’t filled out Questionnaire #1, please do so at your earliest convenience. After which, my assistant Kinkini will add your information to the website.
  3. Join the WhatsApp Group and Facebook Group for notifications and conscious discussions.
  4. Assessment & Strategy Discussion. Purposeful guidance and business strategy from Kristin. These calls will also match you with a coach to support your stage of business growth, if applicable. If you haven’t had your strategy discussion with me yet, please schedule it here.
  5. Website, Newsletter & Social Media Feature. Premium Membership now includes this for $500 per year. Ambassadors Members can receive this benefit for $299 with your 2022 renewal. This includes your $50 annual renewal for membership. Else, you will receive an email on your anniversary date about your renewal.
  6. Accountability Triads. To be formed at monthly membership meetings.

 

Please note that with all of these offerings, come April 2022 I will be increasing the membership pricing to align with the tremendous value I provide to members.

Member Incentive Programs

I continually listen to your comments and suggestions. If you have further ideas or comments, send me an email or fill out the Member Relations Survey. The survey responses provide me input on what CBC services you are using and what would provide more benefit to you. All those that fill out the survey will be entered to win a comp ticket to a future CBC event (valued at $25 or more). Darren Finngegan was the recipient of the last survey gift.

I am so excited to grow Conscious Business Connections for YOU and the greater good!

Sending you all love, light and courage to step into your best self!

~Kristin
