Growth is one of the best problems a business can have. It is also something that you, as a business owner, Director, C-Suite individual, or team member have to deal with on a regular basis. Whether it's closing a sale, seeking outside funding from investors, hosting a successful networking event, hiring new members, or even simply not going crazy, you have to be mindful about the actions you take when growth happens.

This is why we launched the Growth Series. Many of us have questions and few of us have all of the answers. VisualFizz, a digital marketing company that predominantly works with 'growth stage' businesses has been asked these questions constantly and we felt that it's time to provide you with some answers.

We have asked Chicago's best and brightest to speak up and chat with us AND YOU about what they've learned through their years of GROWING their own thing. These individuals are industry leaders, founders of notable companies, sales geniuses, event hosts and personalities, and so much more.

For this event, we will be speaking with Jonathon Pritchard:

Jonathan Pritchard is an internationally touring speaker, consultant, and author who works with companies like BP, State Farm, and 1871 to make their teams more successful by leveraging fundamental psychological principles of influence in business. He is a world class experiential designer with interests in tech, blockchain, investment, entertainment, and audience engagement. He is best known as a mind reader who has been on America's Got Talent, performed on the strip in Vegas, entertained the troops overseas, and more. Find out more about how to be more influential in life and business by reading his book, "[think] Like A Mind Reader" available on Amazon with a 4.9 star rating.

What to expect:

Our panelist will be up on stage discussing their story. From the beginning to the end, the good times and the bad. We will ask them questions, we'll let the floor ask them questions, and we'll hold an open discussion.

Why this format?

We've held panels in the past and we realized there's just TOO MUCH good information to split amongst 3-4 panel speakers. That's why we're taking a more micro approach to understand the story of either 1 or 2 speakers.

Schedule:

• 5:30-6:15 Networking & Chats
• 6:15-7:15 Panel Discussion
• 7:15-8 Networking and Chats CTD.

Future Events:

TBD!
