TOPIC: New Year's Evolution eco-home party
SISTER SPOTLIGHT: Gina Diamond of Green Diamond Consulting

LOCATION WILL BE GIVEN OUT TUESDAY ONLY TO THOSE WHO RSVP!

Join us for an Evolution Party in the neighborhood of Phinney Ridge. Wendy Powell of Childish Things has volunteered her 1912 built home to a fun evening of learning how to change your energy usage and daily routines into sustainable living.

Our informal and collaborative meetings will take a creative view on sustainability, urban development, local commerce and more. No matter where you are on your green path, you will come away with feelings of hope and ideas you can implement in your own lives.

Each gathering will be unique—welcoming a variety of sustainable women and entrepreneurs to the table. This is your opportunity to speak with local businesses and voice your concerns—to see if we can all come together for a solution. Bring a neighbor, a friend or a family member who just wants to learn a little bit more about helping the environment.

We will record all of the resources, websites, recommended books and tips mentioned and will post all of these notes online for all to access.

Do you need to spread the word about your sustainable business?

Instead of handing a person a business card, SHOW them what you do. Bring your products, describe your services and let your enthusiasm shine!

During the { Spotlight }, one proprietress have 15 minutes to present their organization to the group. Expect deeper connections with your buyers and better recommendations from your new evangelists who believe in your products and services just as much as you do. It's a great way to practice your speaking skills on a small scale. Q&A sessions will folow each presentation. Bring business cards, brochures and takeaways to put in goody bags at the end of the event.

Who attended?

  • 10 attendees
    •  The intimate setting allowed for all of us to pay attention and have the freedom to ask questions as opposed to some of the coffee shop events we have had. It was so great to see new and old faces and Gina was outstanding with her information. If only it was earlier in the day and we had more time to cover more information. Maybe we should try scheduling a seminar sometime soon? 
    •  Diamond Consulting was fabulous. Gina was able to give great insight on how to change for the greener tomorrow and a year from tomorrow!
