At our meeting on 11th November we’re excited to have Mark Pope, founder of Pragmatico - Achieve more, a Gold Coast based leadership consultancy speak.

Most business owners and leaders have a conversation they keep avoiding, whether that’s a performance issue, a culture problem, or a decision nobody wants to make. Mark’s session, Courageous Conversations, gives people practical tools for exactly that, and fits well within a breakfast format.

Mark’s spent over 30 years as an executive leader, CEO and business founder, and has worked with organisations including Visy, PwC, BlueScope and MEDLOG Oceania.

Members, past members and guests are welcome to join us for this thought-provoking breakfast session.

Yesterday was a morning of reflection and thought-provoking conversations with Kingsley Colley and Kingsley - podcast host, coach, speaker about how we intentionally create the life we want.

As business owners, it’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day hustle and lose sight of the bigger picture. Sometimes, we need to pause, step back and ask ourselves why we do what we do, what truly matters to us, and whether the way we’re spending our time aligns with our values.

Thanks, Kingsley, for a thought-provoking morning and the reminder to be more intentional about the life we’re creating. 🙌

If you’d like any information on any of Kingsley’s future talks and workshops, be sure to follow him on social media.

Are you a small business owner looking for clarity and needing a dose of Inspiration?
Join us Wednesday 14th October as inspires us to Create the life you want - Leave a Legacy You’re Proud Of

Most business owners spend years building their business, but very little time getting clear on the life they actually want that business to create.

They become busy, successful and constantly needed. Yet somewhere along the way, the business can begin controlling their life instead of supporting it.

Create the Life You Want - Leave a Legacy You’re Proud Of is a thought-provoking and highly interactive presentation that challenges people to step back from the busyness and look honestly at where their life and business are taking them.

This is not simply another motivational presentation.

If you've ever wondered why your marketing feels busier than ever but your pipeline stays quiet, this session is for you.

Leanne Cohens has been helping businesses navigate marketing change for over 13 years on the Gold Coast and across Australia. She's built and run businesses through the Yellow Pages era, the social media era, and now the AI era, which means she doesn't just talk about what's changing. She's lived every shift from both sides of the desk.

At BEN, Leanne is presenting Marketing in the Age of AI: a practical, straight-talking session covering three things quietly costing most businesses clients right now, including why 62% of businesses doing SEO correctly are invisible to AI search, why your website might be turning visitors away before a single conversation starts, and why more content without a system is just noise.

Every attendee leaves with three practical actions they can take that week. No tech background required.

Leanne Cohens is the founder of Marketing Leap host of the Digital Success for Business Podcast, and President of the Southern Gold Coast Chamber of Commerce.
