It's been a while. I've been extremely busy with Girls Night Out...which turned out to be hugely successful. People are still talking about it! It's been very exciting to take this event to the next level. Just as I am reinventing me, I've re-invented this event, and looking back, I'm pretty proud of what I accomplished in under 6 week's time. This years event had many, many new features that really turned it into a night out for women. And on Friday night, Girls Night Out WAS THAT NIGHT.
It had everything. Shopping, spa services, bingo, art gallery, wine tasting with acoustic guitar player, spiritual readings, fashion show, food, champagne, cannolli's made fresh, champagne, dj, dancing, and tons of prizes all night including a vacation to St. Maarten and a shot to win $50,000.
It was the highest attended Girls Night Out (this was its 5th anniversary). Two months ago, I would have told you I wasn't doing this event. But late in the game, I flipped the switch on and revamped the event. I made it different. Better. I was having fun with it again -- something I hadn't been having with it 100% for the past 2 years. I visualized what I wanted it to be and that's what it became. It's pretty amazing. And although this was the 5th year, I learned so many new things during the planning . I marketed heavily through email blasts and had a kick-ass website built by ThirstyLizards.com This was my first experience with really using the internet and a website as a big part of marketing. Now that I'm through it the first time, I can streamline and move smoothly down the river since the learning curve is gone. When you learn, you move forward. And every time you move forward you see a little bit more of the big picture. I won't go any deeper than that, I don't want to scare you away (lol). I prefer that my thoughts would lean you forward for more. All I can tell you is that it's incredible when you realize it's happening to you. Everyone should experience it.
So Girls Night Out 2009....that's a wrap. We came, we conquered. We had one kickin good time!
