Only a couple of weeks left in the quarter and half of 2021 will be in the books. Hoping your business is going well and life is good.
Life Plan Quarter
Q3 is Life Plan Quarter for us which is a one year plan towards your Legacy goals. My wife Robyn and I have recently executed one of our goals for the year. We made the move to our place in Minnesota so we could be closer to the grandkids and our mothers. Yep - we left the warm, humid climate of Florida for the frozen tundra of Duluth. If the past year taught us anything it was not to take for granted the opportunities we have to invest in the things and people we hold dear - and so we made the move! Life Plan quarter is when we ask you to deliberately plan out what you want to accomplish in the next year around your life. Put some thought into it, get it on paper and be ready to share with your group what you’re committing to at your Q3 meeting.
Speaking of the Q3 meetings - right now it looks like a go for all 3 geographies to be in person! This is not a formal announcement yet, but things are trending that way. We will for sure be in person in North America and will be making the announcement in EMEA when the government officially makes their declaration on June 21st. In APAC we need you to get to the Gold Coast, not only for in person Evolve, but for the broader APAC ConnectWise Connect conference. Wish I could be there - it will be awesome!
Our team needs one thing from you - if you haven’t already, go to the registration site and get registered so we can plan for who will be on-site and who will be remote. We’re looking at Q3 as the last quarter that we need to be relying on virtual as a viable alternative. In Q4, we want almost everyone in person and in 2022 we’ll be back to it being a requirement. Time for everyone to get back in the pool as you feel safe - the numbers are looking good so be of the mindset that quarterly travel for Evolve will be part of your routine.
In North America we have two options for those of you that will be on-site. We’re having a 9-hole golf outing to have some fun on Wednesday and we’re also doing a philanthropic effort building either teddy bears or wagons for kids. We’ll also have a way for the golfers to make a donation with something fun at the golf tournament so they can be a part of the charitable efforts while enjoying some golf with your friends. Sign up and let us know which event you'd like to participate in here.
