Are you looking for new ways to create viral, innovative ideas and products? Want to be inspired?

Read the story of one man’s innovative, viral project that took YouTube by storm. Mary Hulihan, Staff Reporter for the Chicago Sun-Times, captures Grammy-winning producer, Mark Johnson’s story and shares a couple of his viral videos, http://www.suntimes.com/entertainment/music/1855881,SHO-Sunday-playing01.article. Mark toured the world capturing street musicians performing the same songs and edited each song into one video.

An amazing technical feat, a musical feat, and an ode to the unifying effect of music. Beautifully produced, innovative, viral and inspiring.  Listen to the music while you’re reading the story.

It’s a virtual event, conducted over the web.  (no makeup, no shoes required) and it runs from Nov. 2 – 6th. My topic is “The Leader Mindset: What it is and How to Get it”, which will be aired on Monday, Nov. 2nd from 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. Once you register you’ll have access to the entire series. Click here for the full line-up and to register.

And, the best part…  there’s no cost to attend!

Although the content is directed to business women, they tell me no one will be checking ID’s at the (virtual) door, so the men out there can listen in on the strategies that will be shared.

If you have all the business you want, no need for you to register.  If you don’t, you’ll want to register to find better ways to market, sell and propel your business to where you’d like to be.
