About a month ago I joined the Institute of Business Leaders and what a wonderful month it has been. My feeling on joining is one of having purchased a lotto ticket in the luckiest draw yet! I feel its all a win win for everyone concerned.

Having attended an IBL function I had the pleasure of meeting Danyelle Mailer from the National College of Business. Danyelle and I exchanged business details and later that week I received a very happy letter with chocolate from Danyelle saying how much she enjoyed our meeting and wanted to get to know more about what The Gift Wizard does.

I was so impressed by Danyelles interest in The Gift Wizard I sent her a small gift to say thank you and also to give her an example of what I do.

A very excited Danyelle phoned to say thank you for the gift and explained that the feeling she got when it arrived along with the element of surprise was exactly what she wanted to impart on her gift recipients. We then discussed putting together some package ideas for her to see later that week.

Danyelle also followed up with an invite to a Time Management Breakfast at the National College of Business the following week.

The moment I got there, I realised that NCB was no ordinary business. It screamed we are organised, we love what we do and you are special and you are just so welcome. A wonderful first impression and they are the ones that count.

The Time Management Talk was brilliant and I came away with some wonderful advice to put into practice from that moment on. I also had the privilege of watching the NCB Team in action from the welcoming of guests, to the perfectly colour co-ordinated flower table arrangements and tablecloths to the efficiency of the NCB staff members. They all had everything down to a fine art.

If my first month is anything to go by, The Gift Wizard will have nothing but the sky to reach for, not just for its business growth but also for the wonderful opportunity of meeting motivated, like minded and progressive people and their businesses.
