TommyLog – Social Media Bringing People Together!

There’s no newsflash that I love social media. Social media has connected me with some amazing people and opportunities. Today was one of the GREAT days where I got to meet long time social media friend Patti Dobrowolski. She was invited to come to town to keynote the Cultivate Event being hosted by the Fox Cities Chamber. About 2 years ago, maybe more, I saw her TEDx talk and reached out to her on twitter. She responded and we have been fast friends ever since.

It’s amazing how social media works! You can see her Draw Your Future talk here http://www.tedxrainier.com/talks/patti-dobrowolski-draw-your-future/ or http://pattidobrowolski.com/

What a pleasure it was to meet you.

TommyLog – WOW’ing Your Customers #cultivatefoxcities

I took part in the Cultivate Fox Cities Chamber event that took place yesterday and WOW what it a GREAT Event. One thing that stood out for me was how to wow the customer. The keynote speaker talked about the Ritz-Carlton hotel and how employees are empowered to make customers happy.

She talked about the difference between a satisfied customer and a  loyal customer.

Amazing day, amazing people!

What do you do to WOW your customers?

FoxCities Chamber, I Want to help!!!

Tommy talks openly to the Fox Cities Chamber of Commerce and how we can take their organization to 2010 and beyond. The chamber really need to focus on the building of new members. Now all members can be million dollar companies. its great to see the ones that are, but what about the little guys? For the chamber to move forward, it needs to reinvent itself and retool for the future. it needs to think outside the box and spread its offerings to those business who can not afford the chambers services, in the present form.

I want to help the chamber grow. I want to help drive more business and help others… put me to work!!

TommyLog The Chamber Listened

Yesterday I attended the Fox Cities Chamber of commerce Face Booth 2010 business to business expo. I was working in the HC Miller booth all morning to mid afternoon showing other local business our technological fare. So great to meet new people. After my shift int eh booth was over, I was able to browse around and see what other had to offer. I MET THE BEST PEOPLE!!! Just the best. I met Patty and Joy from the Chamber, I met folks from the Fox Cities magazine. I met my new best reporter friend in the whole world, Maureen from the Post-Crescent. I think the highlight was to be taken aside by Kathy at the chamber and she asked me some hard questions — I answered and she listened. SHE ACTUALLY LISTENED!!!

How many people in this world take the time to listen? I’m stunned and I can’t wait to listen to her needs and help

I love this job!

Challenge the Norms

Tommy got some amazing news on Friday challenging the norms in which he was brought up to believe. This last year since the birth of baby Drew has been amazing. First the news report, then a public speaking gig with Red Shoes PR and the Fox Cities Chamber. Who would have thought the potential of a poor boy form Rochester, NY… :)~
