Pitch your idea and help other entrepreneurs make their idea happen at the Center for Creative Marketing's !DEA STORM

If you have an IDEA for a BUSINESS or a new PRODUCT or SERVICE -  we have some creative folks who want to help you "tweak" your idea and take it to the next step.

The !DEA STORM is hosted by Rebecca Antonelli at the Center for Creative Marketing. She is joined by a team of CREATIVES and veteran entrepreneurs who are on hand to offer feedback, concepts, resources and contacts to help ideas with a future move forward.

The intention of this event is to support a person with passion, talent or skill as they determine whether they should go beyond dreaming and make their idea a reality. We will help you consider the possibilities and opportunities to build a business, vet ideas for new products, services, markets to penetrate, alliances to develop.

You'll learn how you can create ideas, build on existing ones, search out golden opportunities and find validation. Real world examples from the frontlines of business will help plant seeds for future idea germination and we will show you how to exploit the power of innovation for yourself. If you're ready to stop getting ready to get ready - we welcome you to attend as our guest.

Members of the audience are chosen to introduce their ideas to the CREATIVES and the audience who become your sounding board to build on, question, add to and vet the idea.

A thumbs up or thumbs down may or may not happen, but the presenter walk away with a notion of the supremely important answer to “WHAT’s Next?”

Attendence is limited. Senior marketing/communications/business services professionals are welcome and asked to be available for feedback. The purpose of the !DEA STORM is not to be your marketing counsel, it is an informal setting to assess your idea and offer feedback and suggestions for your next steps.  There are no experts available for a one-on-one consultation. All conversations are considered confidential and anyone who registers and attends agrees to keep what happens in the room – in the room.
