Pitch for Purpose has a winner before the competition even begins.

And that's The Grove Wellington-Guelph. ❤️

On September 16th, our business community is coming together for a day of competition, connection and giving back, all in support of this year's charity.

YES, there will be bragging rights and we're expecting a LOT of fun.

But the purpose behind Pitch for Purpose is that local businesses are using their collective reach, resources and relationships to support their community.

Overheard at a Chapter Meeting:

"My best clients would happily refer me. But I checked and in eleven years, I'd NEVER asked."

She assumed great work spoke for itself. And it does. Subtly, occasionally, whenever a perfect moment happens to arise in someone else's conversation.

The chapter helped her build something better: a simple habit of asking happy clients, at the natural high point of a project, "Who else do you know dealing with this?"

She didn’t use a script or a pushy funnel. Just an ask, at the right moment, from someone who'd earned it.

The results was four new clients in three months! From people who already loved her.💙💙💙

Your happiest clients are a referral engine with the parking brake on. Release it!

When did you last actually ask for a referral? Be honest.

When business owners spend enough time together, the conversations get better.

You stop giving the polished answers and lay it all out there.

And then, instead of pretending everything is fine, you get perspective from people who understand what it's like to own a business.

That's what happens when networking becomes belonging.

What can you stop doing?

Business owners are very good at adding.

Adding a new strategy or tool or meeting or offer or roll.
But growth doesn't always come from doing more.

What's taking your time, money or attention?

Does it still need to be done?
Does it still need to be done the same way?
And does it still need to be done by YOU?

Your Monday momentum might come from taking something OFF the list.

Pitch for Purpose is officially at capacity for teams on September 16th!

And that means we've got a room full of businesses ready to compete, connect, have some fun and, most importantly, raise money for The Grove Wellington-Guelph.

But being on a team isn't the only way to get involved.

We're still welcoming sponsors who want to put their business behind an event that brings the local business community together for a really good reason.

Visit our website to learn about the opportunities but hurry- the big day is coming up soon: https://www.powerconnects.ca/pitchforpurpose

To us, a good referral takes takes time to build.

When you sit around the table with the same business owners consistently, they learn more than your job title.

They learn what you're great at and who your best clients are.

They see how you treat people and they know whether you follow through.

And eventually, they know exactly when to bring your name into a conversation.

That's why we aren't about meeting as many people as possible.

In Power Connects, we are building relationships strong enough that people are comfortable putting their reputation behind your name.

This one has been coming up at chapter meetings lately. Anyone else coming out of the summer fog wondering if they should burn everything down? 😅

New offer! New strategy! New direction!
Maybe reconsider the entire business while we're at it!

🛑Before you do any of that...

You might just need to recalibrate.

Summer throws routines off: vacations, shorter weeks, kids home (!) clients away, beautiful weather calling your name. Most of us are wondering lost by the end of August.

It doesn't mean something is wrong with your business.

You may just need to realign with where you were going before summer scrambled your brain.

So before you reinvent anything, grab a coffee and answer these three questions:

1. What am I trying to accomplish between now and the end of the year?

2. What worked during my best months that I need to get consistent with again?

3. What has crept onto my plate that isn't helping me get where I want to go?

THEN pick your next move.

You might just need to remember the plan you already had and not waste the dog days of summer making a whole new one.

We're just a few weeks away from Pitch for Purpose, and once again, our Power Connects community is showing up in a big way.

For the second year in a row, RLB is our Lunch Sponsor AND they're putting a team in the competition!

That's exactly what this event is about! Businesses getting involved, having some fun, and coming together to support an important cause.

Our team spots are officially full but there are still ways to be part of Pitch for Purpose through sponsorship, spreading the word, and supporting this year's charity, The Grove Wellington Guelph.

A huge thank you to RLB for stepping up again this year and helping us make September 16th a great day for our business community and our community at large.

One of the best parts of Power Connects is hearing what's really going on behind the scenes.

Recently, a member shared that they'd been waiting for the "perfect" time to reach out to a potential client. They didn't want to blow the shot!

But the room had a different perspective.

What if the perfect time isn't something you wait for...

What if it's something you create? 🤯

Sometimes the biggest breakthrough in business comes from that one conversation that changes how you think.

That's the power of sitting around the *right* table.

Not every business problem is a marketing problem.

Sometimes it's pricing. Or clarity. Or trying to serve everyone instead of the right people.

And sometimes... It's simply that you've been too busy working in the business to stop and ask better questions.

Before you jump to the next shiny thing, ask yourself what the real problem is that you're trying to solve with that tactic/idea/shiny thing.

The answer might be just the thing you need to focus on.
