This exciting seminar will teach you how to increase your creativity and the level of innovation throughout your organization. If you believe that new ideas and better ways to do things are still available to you, then this seminar will show you how to do it. There’s always a better way!

I’ve known Robert Tucker for years and have read many of his top selling books. He’s a man with a scientific inquisitive mind and a good caring heart. You will enjoy meeting and learning from him.

This seminar will be held on Tuesday, March 30th from 8:30AM to Noon at the luxurious Four Seasons Westlake Village Hotel and will include much audience involvement, so that you are applying the ideas rather than merely hearing about them. Robert wanted to assure that all attendees get a copy of his new book and he’ll be happy to autograph them for you. Plan to arrive by 8:15AM to sign in and get a good seat. Enroll now! Click here.

After the seminar, stay around and dine at the Four Seasons. They do lunch better than just about anyone and besides, you will have a world-class setting for the discussion of all the new ideas you just learned. When you return to work after lunch you will be un-stoppable!

We just had our most successful seminar yet in this Prosperity Series for the 101 Leaders Institute. Don Hutson, coauthor of The One Minute Entrepreneur (#1 NY Times Bestseller), was our featured speaker. The audience raved about his content, delivery & humor. Don makes it fun to learn from him. And his handouts were chock full of deliverable, usable content on selling in today’s marketplace.

Below are some photos of the event to give you a flavor of what it was like.

Please assure that you are there for the next seminar on Tuesday, March 30, 2010 from 8:30am to Noon here in Westlake Village, California. Our featured speaker will be Innovation Expert, Robert Tucker and everyone who attends will receive a copy of his newest book “Innovation is Everybody’s Business.”

November 5 at Sherwood Country Club from 6:30pm to 9pm

The Breakthrough to Prosperity seminar series will feature bestselling author and Hall of Fame professional speaker Scott McKain!

Call or email us now to reserve your spots for this vital seminar! You may attend this one seminar for just $199 or enroll in the entire series of eight seminars for only $795.

Scott will be covering the vital ideas from his three recent bestsellers.

“Stand Out & Move Up While Your Competition Fails!”
Based upon Scott’s current #1 Amazon.com business bestseller, “Collapse of Distinction,” we will examine:
• The Three Destroyers of Differentiation — the aspects pulling you and your organization back to the pack, where you are indistinguishable from your competition and sales are centered upon having the cheapest price
• The Four Cornerstones of Distinction — the four elements that MUST be executed…and, in a particular order…that create separation from the competition, and move you to the forefront in your industry

“What Customers REALLY Want”
As Vice-Chairman of a multi-million dollar holding company owning nineteen diverse businesses, Scott surveyed customers, first of his own organizations — then, other household names — to discover what customers of ANY business REALLY want. We’ll learn:
• The Six Points ALL Customers REALLY Want
• What Organizations Offer — and, unfortunately, it’s different than what their clients crave!
• How to bridge the gap and eliminate the disconnections, so you create lifelong customer loyalty and profitability!

“ALL Business is Show Business!”
Customers and employees today expect and demand more than mere products, services, and jobs! They require an experience as a part of the package! Therefore, creating and delivering an “Ultimate Customer Experience” (TM) can make a significant difference for any professional and organization. We will discover:
• The importance of a personal and organizational “High Concept” and why it is more vital than your “elevator speech”
• The Power of Story — why you and your organizations should communicate to customers in compelling narratives
• Creating the “Ultimate Customer Experience” (TM) — the elements necessary to engage clients in a manner that keeps them coming back…and bringing the friends!

Your competition is desperately seeking ways to get the business that you don’t. They may be buying Scott’s books and trying to use these ideas before you do. Why not jump past the crowd and come learn directly from the author? Come and spend a few hours in direct conversation with Scott McKain, then take these ideas back and gain the competitive edge.
