Branding, Books & Beaches


Does this describe you? 

  • Have you lost out to a competitor not because they were better, but because their marketing was better? 
  • Do you know you need to establish your brand but don’t know where to start? 
  • Are you ready to take your business to the next level? 

 

Or... Maybe this sounds like you: 

  • Your business has been running for a couple of years and it’s doing “okay.” 
  • You are confident in your abilities and you really deliver for your clients. 
  • You have a good reputation but you're not well known.  

In short, you know it’s time to step up your game. 

It’s time to go big or go home. And you ain't going home.  

 

Welcome to Branding, Books & Beaches

Hi - 

Sharon Vornholt and Barbara Grassey here. We have been working with private clients individually on branding, marketing, and using books as a differentiating factor. We knew if we put our trainings together, we could come up with a POWERHOUSE seminar that would really benefit small business owners, leaders, coaches, and trainers. 

So we did. 

We wanted to make sure that people not only received the best training and support we could give, but that you got it in the lap of luxury. We wanted you to experience what your life will look like once you have all your marketing pieces in place. 


And now we are proud to invite you .... 

To join us at the gorgeous Omni Resort in Hilton Head October 14th -16th 2016 for this one of a kind exclusive event.

Branding, Books & Beaches is an exclusive three day event where you will walk away with your brand firmly in place, your target market clearly identified, your branding book fully outlined, and much more. 

But before we get into all that (and there’s a LOT!), allow us to introduce ourselves.

Branding, Books & Beaches  

October 14th -16th, 2016 


A Little About Us

Sharon Vornholt

Sharon Vornholt is best known as a marketing expert and brand strategist. She has helped hundreds of people refine their brand and create marketing plans that work. She has a popular blog and podcast that have one goal: teaching others how to start and grow a profitable business that allows them to live an entrepreneurial lifestyle. 

All businesses have one thing in common: if they don’t create a buzzworthy brand they will get lost in the crowd. At Branding, Books & Beaches, get ready to take your brand up a notch. No more “selfie” photos and videos.  

After attending this event you will have the professional quality branding elements needed to create a buzzworthy brand and become the undisputed authority in your market. 


Barbara Grassey

Barbara Grassey is stepping out from behind the curtain – she is known in the speaking industry as “the gurus’ secret weapon.” Barbara has written dozens of books in the past few years for national speakers as well as coaches and trainers on subjects as diverse as Emotional IQ, Real Estate Investing, Motivation, Sales, even running professional medical practices. Her clients all have two things in common: They know the value of authoring a book and they all need that book FAST! 

Authoring a book is one of the fastest and surest ways to set yourself above your competition. But it needs to be a quality book – a poorly written and produced book will backfire on you. At Branding, Books & Beaches, Barbara will show you how to write your book quickly, ensuring that you have quality content presented coherently and thoroughly, and how to have that book produced professionally without breaking the bank.

What Is Branding, Books & Beaches?

Branding, Books & Beaches is a unique, live seminar being held at the Omni Resort in Hilton Head, South Carolina, October 14th- 16th, 2016.

The three day event is designed specifically to be a combination of training and hands-on workshops that will have you actually working on your brand and your book during the event. 

Day 1 - Branding 

  • Brand Assessment 
  • Your Target Market/Customer Avatar 
  • Your Personal Story and Your Brand 
  • Video Branding and How to Write Your Video Script 
  • Marketing – Take it Up a Notch with a Professional Branding Package 

 

You know we’re going to hit the ground running, right? 

After a brief welcome, Sharon starts you right in working on your brand. Who are you? How do you want to be viewed by prospects and clients? Next we focus in on your ideal target market, defining your customer avatar and how to best reach them. 

In the afternoon we discuss how to present your personal story using the Hero’s Journey as a blueprint. (You’ll learn why having a compelling story is at the core of every successful person and business. You always remember a great story right?) All of this comes together as you write the script for your two to three minute branding video – which we’ll be taping on Day 3. 

Day 2 – Books 

  • What Type of Book Should You Write?  
  • Outlining Your Book 
  • How to Write Your Book Quickly 
  • Ins and Outs of Publishing 
  • Using Your Book to Promote Your Brand 

The idea of writing a book intimidates some people. Not you. At least not after Day 2. Barbara breaks down the process of getting your book DONE, quickly and painlessly. We kick off the morning talking about the different types of books people use to brand themselves. Barbara shows you how to outline your book and how simple it is to write a quality book without pain and drama. 

In the afternoon, we’ll talk the ins and outs of publishing – how it all works and what you need to have a quality book printed and in your hands. From there, we talk about how to use your book to promote you, your services, and your brand. 


Day 3 – Sorry, no. We’re not hitting the beach. (Good thought, though!) 

 

  • Tying It All Together
  • Working Sessions – Individualized Attention 
  • Photo Shoot 
  • Video Shoot 
  • Wrap Up Session 

Day 3 is a true hands-on working day. Throughout the day, everyone will have time blocked off for their professional branding photos and to shoot their videos. Since people will be in and out, it gives us a chance to work with you one-on-one, helping you to flesh out your book, answering individual questions on branding, going over your personal marketing plan. 

We wrap up the day with your Next Step Action Plan so you will know exactly what you need to do when you get home to keep the momentum going. 

Live Events Have A Special Energy

You’re in a room filled with motivated people like yourself. Ideas are popping, possibilities are opening up. You leave the event, go home after an exhilarating three days, ready to take on the world. Right after you get settled back in… 

Somehow all those wonderful ideas and plans get jostled to the back burner. Maybe you implement one or two strategies, but the rest fall by the wayside – you’re too busy or you can’t remember exactly how something was supposed to work. And, over time, those brilliant ideas fade, papered over by the daily challenges of running your business. 


That’s where Branding, Books & Beaches differs from all other live events. 


We have purposely structured this event to send you home with the foundational pieces of both your brand and your book firmly in place. You walk out the door with these components in your hot little hands: 

  • A clear vision of your target customer and your brand 
  • What your brand encompasses 
  • A custom-tailored Branding and Marketing Plan for you and your business 
  • A Fully Mapped Outline of Your Signature Book 
  • You will begin writing your book at the event! 
  • Your Own Branding Photographs (To Highlight Your Unique Personality) 
  • Your Unique Branding Video (2-3 minute professionally produced and edited) Starring...YOU!
  • 3 Days of networking and brainstorming with high level business owners 
  • Small Group Individualized Attention

Put Yourself In The Picture

How many seminars have you been to where you are told to “visualize your successful life?” 

At Branding, Books & Beaches, you don’t have to visualize it. You will be living it. 

We have secured the fabulous Omni Resort on the sugar sand beaches of Hilton Head, South Carolina for this special event. 


  • Three ocean view pools (one adult and two family) 
  • Two Jacuzzis overlooking the ocean 
  • Access to a private beach 
  • Poolside/Beachside Cabanas 
  • 54 Holes of Championship Golf 
  • Full Service Ocean Tides Spa 
  • Fully Equipped Fitness Center 
  • 25 Tennis Courts 
  • Canoeing and Kayaking

It’s a whole lot easier to visualize yourself as successful when you are eating 5 star cuisine and a maid is cleaning up your room. Frankly, life is better when the toughest question of the day is, “Should we hit the Jacuzzi or go down to the beach?” 

We want you to be able to look around and say, “Yes, this is what I visualized.” 

You’re stepping into a whole other world when you cross the threshold of the Omni. Get used to it. 

Best of all, we’ve secured a limited number of rooms at special rates for our attendees, but you must reserve your room now. Click here to find rates and make your reservation.
