We’re Grateful For You!

Happy Thanksgiving! From our families to yours, we hope you have an amazing holiday break and that you take time to recharge.

And I’m grateful for our team! They work very hard behind the scenes to help me help you grow your business. Just in case you don’t know our team members, here are just a few of the tasks they manage for us:

Erin Weir – Vice President and Co-Founder of Design Success University and Gail Doby Coaching & Consulting – I can’t do justice to all that Erin does for the company in a brief synopsis – she manages our operations, and works with me to develop our short and long-term strategies and plans, and then creates the execution plan for the team. She’s also our Brand Experience Queen, logistics expert and event co-planner. She is our glue. (11+ years)

We’re taking a brief pause for the next few days to rest up for our final big event of the year – our first VIP Intensive in which we help you design your business for maximum profit and efficiency + we add our “secret sauce” which will more than help you recoup your investment. We help you design your financial model and three-year budget and 90-Day action plan. Our entire coaching team is involved in delivering the 2-Day VIP Intensive. (If you’d like to know more about it, please email info@gaildoby.com – our next VIP Intensive is April 20 & 21 in Winston-Salem, NC – limited to 16 companies with total revenue of at least $250K.)

We’ll share more about our 2017 plans in our upcoming newsletters. Meanwhile, have an amazing few days, and we’ll be in touch soon.
