Secrets success in Denver at CSIA DemoGala2007



Recently, I had the opportunity to travel to Denver, CO at the invitation of the Canadian Consulate in that area. I was invited, along with 8 other technology firms from Alberta and Sask. to be a part of the CSIA annual DemoGala2007.

What an amazing collection of technologies, ideas, and entreprenuers each seeking to share theirs with anyone who walked by...

The Consulate staff brought CO Governor, Bill Ritter over to the Canada booth to meet us and to have his picture taken with the complete trade mission team after he finished speaking at the opening kick off.

He had made a couple of major technology announcements and had been a good speaker. AS a speaker myself, I told him he had done a good job and encouraged him to keep up the good work... which brought a smile to his face. Someone told me later, that might have been due to his being new to the politician role since he took office in Jan of 2007. I hope he keeps close to who he is and shares honestly... we need more of that.

Drop Zone a success


Drop Zone adventure ended as a success with Bob raising $3200 to support AB Easter Seals kids. Thanks to those who made a donation.
What a mental challenge... much more than a physical one in stepping off the ledge of a 27 story Sutton Place Hotel and rappelling down under my own control.
It was a great experience and an even greater cause. AB Easter Seals help kids and adults with disabilities have additional freedom in living their lives.
Visit: www.DropZoneBob.com for pictures and raw video footage of the event.

Moving past the minimum - gaining momentum



Update August 16th:

We have reached the first level of success in this quest to help Alberta Easter Seals help kids and adults with disabilities.

We are above the $1500 minimum needed to be able to rappel down the outside of the Sutton Place hotel in Edmonton, Alberta

Bob is scheduled to step off at 10:45AM on Sept 10th. If you are in the area, come out and cheer him on as he conquers his nervousness about heights and helps the Easter Seals Kids.

But we can still use your help to raise even more money. You can visit Bob's webpage and follow the links to his personal donation page on the Alberta Easter Seals site. Once there, you can make a donation... and you don't even have to live in Edmonton, or Canada for that matter. You can help right where you are...

Thanks

Bob Hooey

PS: If you are wondering how this relates to Secret Selling Tips... one of the secrets is having an attitude and action plan for giving and being involved in your community. That attitude, for some unexplained reason, opens doors and attracts those who would support you and deal with you based on your commitment.
