“I thought The Business of Fun was such an awesome idea and it really did give some great insight into these industries. I really liked the combination of video and personal interaction…and of course the free shwag!” – Nicole Didero
“It definitely inspired creativity and you all shared some great advice.” –Kristin WIlmann
“Great vibe. Interesting perspectives on the panel. Engaged audience.” –Chuck Sullivan
“I would highly recommend the program and saw that it was extremely well received by students at CSU.” –Renne Welch
The Business of Fun events have consisted of 5 to 10 people and an attendance of 100-200 students. We do our best to make each panel a wide variety of different perspectives and variations of “living the dream”.
The events usually start out with each panelist introducing themselves and then a moderator steering a discussion to what we feel most benefits the students. The discussions discussions vary dependent on the panel and the audience but themes of sacrifice, networking, brand building, and passion are common threads. After about an hour of talking from the panel the event opens for questions from the audience and then into an open forum where attendees can talk one on one with the panelists.
We’re hoping that the next step in the evolution of The Business of Fun is a larger national tour but stay tuned for potential events in your area. If you think we should come to your school or town don’t hesitate to let us know. Feel free to suggest panelists you’d like to meet as well.
