Discussions : Events forum (au) : Brisbane - Share your Business Day
Whataheart wrote:
OK so here is my idea...
I'd like to share more about my business and find out more about yours, I'd like to meet other party planners in person, to see your catalogues and maybe even your favourite products.
If you are in Brisbane or are willing to drive and you think getting us all together sounds like a great idea let me know so we can arrange a date that will suit us all.
My plan is that we will all have a great day or sharing tips and stories and that by the end of the day we will have formed relationships that will help us all grow our businesses.
SO what do you think?

Would love to take part - maybe could organise one for the Sunshine Coast Region as well???
What are your thoughts/plans for this event? They do take alot of time to organise!

Sounds like a fantastic idea. I'm always up for any event where I can drink coffee and talk to fabulous women all day!! Keep me up to date.
ExMember148 replied:
2nd Bec, lots of hard work. Set out the rules now! Is this going to be just an informal get together or more and don't let people sway you either way!! Just remember the KISS slogan! Keep It Simple Silly. Bring a catalogue, a product and a plate!!!
Maybe throw out a few days/times. Get a feel. For example a Fri - Monday is just allocated business time for me, so I would rather any other day.
Good luck and keep us in touch.
Hennypenny replied:
Hi,
Yep, definately interested. Just hope I have got everything up and running in time. Still sorting out paperwork. Hoping to do first party in early April. When were you thinking of?
It would be a great opportunity for me to network with my new venture. Would also be great to see who else is out there and what their products are.

How are the plans going for the event?

ExMember148 replied:
???? don't know .............
Girls - I don't know what was in mind ........... but it really is easy (and probably best) ......... to organise yourselves a coffee morning somewhere. Someone who is relatively central to all .........boil the jug.........bring a plate and talk and talk and talk and talk ...........
Kelly replied:
Whataheart, Youve inspired me to suggest the same for all Perth consultants on here. Surely theres a few of us!
sparklingvoodoo replied:
I put forward [ExMember148]'s house one Tuesday at around 10:00am. What does everyone in Brisbane think?
Zammy replied:
hehe Jac, good of you to volunteer for [ExMember148]
Tuesday mornings sound great to me though and [ExMember148] is nice and close so I'll second her place!
ExMember148 replied:
Oh I think Jaclyn should make it her [ExMember148] Announcement Party.............!!!! And then I would be only too happy to have you all over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SaucyKath replied:
Hi girls, Tuesday is about the only day I can't make it, as I run our local Playgroup on that day. This would be great if we could make something regular though - like maybe once a month or at least once every 6 weeks.
I'd probably prefer something thats not during school hols though - as leaving the house with all 6 kids can be a nightmare sometimes, and I'd rather know I can come and relax with you all.

renking replied:
I'm free Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Fridays... (ooohhh school holidays are coming up again?! I forgot about that!)
ExMember148 replied:
Just to clarify..............there is still NO venue..........remember [ExMember148] lives in a PO BOX!!!
sparklingvoodoo replied:
Come on [ExMember148], we all know you are the one for the job.
AngelEyesByDesign replied:
Tuesdays and Thursdays works best for me!
So what does everyone else suggest? Anyone know of a good meeting place? We could tie this in with Starlight Day maybe?
Lets get things organised guys and gals!!
Bec
ExMember148 replied:
Yes, organise it for starlight day!!!!!!!!! That is a fantastic idea (and better still because [ExMember148] is out of the picture that weekend for ANYTHING!!) You go girls, organise your little hearts out
anadesigns replied:
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I would love to join if I didnt live so far away LOL
Hope everyone has lots of fun catching up
renking replied:
Ohhh cool... if we go ahead with that date, I'll definelty be free!! :D
What a great idea!!
ExMember148 replied:
A suggestion has been made .......... (why me??) ..........anyway,
Does
McCafe at Morayfield suit anybody???
Let's get a venue happening first - then a date/time later sorted out.........
SaucyKath replied:
I'm up for it!
candlekaren replied:
I will probably come (what date is it??) but what about a more central location so both North and Southsiders can come. Like the city or somewhere close to it?? Just a suggestion.
Karen
ExMember148 replied:
No one has set a date...........
No one has really taken on the organising......it is just kind of flowing
Just trying to see where everyone is ATM and who is interested........eg: no use having northside if everyone lives on southside etc.............
Also, just trying to get a mid point like you say........I know a lot of the girls are from the Sunny Coast - so if they are interested in coming down, it is kinda half way for them........so just trying to get a feel............. if they are not coming, then we could move souther (word??)........
Also, this doesn't have to be a one off, we can do this one, then do a southside one, then do a Ipswich one, then a northside one.............take turns and rotate.
So, just a show of hands now, to see if any one is interested.........it will probably not be now until Mid May - easter and then school hols are making life hard at moment for most people!!
Ok, counting hands now : just for show of interest - not a full committment

Janine replied:
