I usually joke around a bit before sharing Greyt Big Talk plans, but this month I have to tell you an important story about these three guys I recently met.
Fickle Undy, Nickel Nim and Nook broke a bread, small but good. The time was fine and wine was fine and whenever the line ‘let’s dine’ would chime, the men would debate on this date or that date but eventually gates to make a great pie would break. I know there’s a war. I know there’s no time. I know there’s infinite work, deadline the daily headline. And the balls on this guy to send this sort of rhyme, this nonsense - it's dead time! Hey, maybe. But not to me, baby, and not for Undy, not for Nook, not for Nim. Remember Nim? This is where his story begins, and such a crime it would be not to learn his future, the dents and cracks he’ll leave in the universe.
If you’re still reading, I put this program on, the “Breakfast for Creatives” not because I’m the most creative guy in the world, but really the opposite. I wanna learn how to let myself play more often, make mistakes more often, keep moving more often, fall in love more often. Live a crazy-ass life more often. I’ve learned a lot, and I hope to keep learning more. Above all, it makes me really happy to see people wander through a random day, light up their imagination by accepting a bit of out-of-the-ordinary, and on special occasions connect their own great story to someone else’s.
I do have a bit of business to attend to, some notable notions, and requests… they are, as follows:
1. Considerable upgrades have been made to the Greyt Culture website: Thanks to some digital marketing counsel from my dear friend, Ryan Morgan, I’ve been able to create these things:
- There is now a dedicated page to submit espresso shot pitches: thatsgreyt.com/pitch
- There’s a page dedicated to music applications: thatsgreyt.com/music-app
- There’s a sign up for maker space at ALL of our programs: thatsgreyt.com/vendor-app
Please refer people to each of these pages as appropriate. We want to connect and feature our community far and wide.
- There is now a sponsorship signup form: thatsgreyt.com/greytbigtalk-sponsor
I shared in November my intention to create a trade show environment, to welcome Cleveland’s corporate community to participate in Greyt Big Talk - This space starts at $500 which I think is very accessible to help with goals of employee recruitment, retention, team building. This is so important. Please share with HR/Marketing directors that may be interested in participating in this way.
- There’s a new ticket 'on-sale’ feature we implemented on the website.
Going forward regular GBT tickets will be available on announce, and free tickets will open Monday before the events, as we used to do under the old program.
2. Greyt Big Talk Volume 1 Is coming very soon! I’ve been saying this for months, but this time it’s true - I hope next week to publish either a season teaser or episode 1. AND the series as a whole has beautiful new branding you’ll now see everywhere representing the program, thanks to another old friend - Chris Comella - (thanks man).
The plans for next week Friday are below. There are gaps! Reply if you can help OR send people to the app pages! I’d love to see those new tools get some use.
See you out there
-Thomas
