The Amazing Creativity Tool
By Chris Dunmire, Publisher
On January 9, 2010, I participated in my very first coach "tabletop", that's marketing jargon for promoting my Kaizen-Muse Creativity Coaching services at a Holistic Health Fair in Northern Illinois. Yes, I had my own table to display and share information, business cards, and anything else I desired, with the added benefit of being able to speak face-to-face with anyone interested in learning more about creativity coaching.
If you're bored with the scenario I just described, wait. I haven't mentioned the Jellybean Counting Contest and loads of "The Amazing Creativity Tool!" I also gave away. See, my intention for attending the fair was two-fold. Besides self-promotion, I wanted to see how many people I could playfully allure into participating in a jellybean counting contest to win a book and then walk away with one of my Amazing Creativity Tools in hand (99.6% of people participated). Overall, the ensuing comic relief and conversations about creativity made it all worthwhile.
If you'd like to learn more about my Amazing Creativity Tool and see how you just might get one snail-mailed to you (humor essay contest), read on »
