Slow start...

Here's the next step:

Thanks to University of Denver Alum Magazine for plug:

Any feedback you have about the current little book, what you like, what you don't like, would be very much appreciated.

Would you be willing to let me put the story of your startup in a future edition? If so, please see submission guidelines on http://www.SmallBizChamber.org

New (final?) version of "Connect to Win" just posted on http://www.johnwren.com/  My intention is to print it in booklet form, start distributing it at all IDEA Cafe Startup Workshops and at talks I give on the same topic to service clubs, chambers of commerce, and neighborhood associations between now and the 2012 Colorado Caucuses.

This week I published "Connect to Win" (click here to see it) on the Denver Post's Your Hub.

The final version of this, perhaps expanded to a book, will become the handbook for the Small Business Chamber of Commerce, once it has moved from virtual to real, with a board of directors, an office and staff, recognition by the IRS as a 501C3, and a budget. Our mission: To strengthen the grassroots in business and politics by helping local chambers of commerce to offer IDEA Café Startup Workshops and Franklin Circle Peer Advisory Groups to their members. If you’d like to help, contact me at (303)861-1447 or John@JohnWren.com. Thanks! John

I've revised the article in the Statesman Newspaper that was published last fall (see link below) and made it into a 4-page booklet for anyone starting in a new direction with their work. If you'd like a copy email me at John@JohnWren.com

I'm also going to submit the revised text to Denver newspapers again. My hope is that people who are new to Colorado or just new to Colorado politics will start getting more involved prior to the 2012 Colorado Caucuses.

The current issue of the Colorado Stateman newspaper has my advice for citizens trying to decide what to do next, I think the same 5 points apply to anyone trying to decide what to do next with their career, those starting in a new direction with their career, a new project, or a new business.

I'm forming a new Franklin Circle for entrepreneurs, business owners, and creative managers. If you'd like more information and an invitation to our first meeting contact me at John@JohnWren.com or (303)861-1447.
