Barbara and I had our 6-weekly content strategy session again. Lots of great new ideas — thanks again! Especially focused on increasing reach and boosting conversions. Sometimes it’s okay to be a bit commercial, right?
And Stephan thought the same. He joined us briefly at the end of the meeting. Our Louwman post had performed really well, so it was a good moment to reflect.
“Can I ask you a bold question?” he said.
“Of course!” I replied.
“Would you like to sponsor the caps for the FCN padel tournament in Marbella?”
“Super cool! Absolutely!” I said immediately.
But it was just outside the budget I can decide on myself. And sponsoring is never exactly cheap 😉 So I had to give Maarten a quick call.
A few messages later: “Approved!”
How cool is that! I’m really excited! 🧢 Soon we’ll be creating awesome content with all FCN members on the padel court, all wearing our logo!
And honestly, this is great. And it wasn’t a bold question at all. Bold people get ahead. In business, you just have to ask. If you don’t ask, you won’t get it.
So compliments to Stephan — I’m happy with our deal!
And also compliments to Barbara and Merlin! The level of structure and professionalism at FCN and the Carbon House is impressive. Everything is well organized. Everyone supports each other. Events everywhere. Connections with other members. Just in the past month, I’ve been introduced to 6 new connections — and already landed 2 new clients.
Now that’s a powerful network! 💥
Love it!
