Homewood Nation

In the quest to enable more empowering and delightful conversations in and about Homewood, Homewood Nation is launching a series of events under the title, "Homewood Nation Presents."

Homewood Nation Presents will include both real-life and online events offering conversations with smart people on fascinating topics.

The real-life events will take place in a variety of venues. The online events will use Google Plus as a platform for broadcasting live video, with the capability for Q and A during the conversation.

Our first online event will be at 8 pm this evening, with guest Shimira Williams, in a conversation titled "Own Your Own." Ms. Williams, founder of Productivity LLC (I cannot BELIEVE she was able to snag such a great, simple name), will discuss the importance of businesses owning their own domain names (such as www.homewoodnation.com), and how to establish your online domain. If you own a business and your online presence consists only of a Facebook page, Ms. Williams will help you to move to a new level.

Next week, Homewood Nation Presents will begin a three-part series of conversations, also for business owners, with Craig Calvert, of SmartProcure - conversations designed to help your business grow by competing for and winning some of the $20 billion that government agencies spend EVERY DAY.

If the last part of that last sentence didn't take your breath away, you need to re-read it.

The series will broadcast live at 8:30 p.m. on March 11, 18 and 25.

To keep informed of these and future events, email homewoodnation@gmail.com and ask to be placed on our notification list. Thanks!

And in case you haven't guessed yet, FEBU is a play on a fashion brand, and stands for "For Everybody, By Us." Because in the end, I intend to sell to the world. 

We now return you to our regularly scheduled programming...
