Happy Tuesday, Reader! This is the last week our Fall 2025 Strategic Planning Retreat spots are available exclusively to subscribers and current clients. If you haven’t reserved your spot yet, what's been holding you back?
I understand the hesitation. Bringing in a third party to help with strategic planning is like hiring a contractor for your home—you have to consider costs vs. benefits. If your home's electrical system has problems, you have to get it fixed. Ignoring it is dangerous—the issue could spiral out of control, and dealing with unreliable electricity isn't feasible in today's world. So the question isn't whether to fix it—it's how. Strategic Planning Choice #1: You DIY it. There's a wealth of information out there on how to design your strategy yourself. That's a legitimate choice. But it will take you longer than it would an experienced professional, and through trial and error, you may not necessarily end up saving money. Strategic Planning Choice #2: You call in a professional. There is a definitive cost, but the project will be done quickly and safely. Plus, you’ll have peace of mind knowing it's been done right. Like home electrical work, strategic planning for your business is a job that shouldn't be put off. Whether you hire the professionals or do it yourself, realigning your business strategy with your vision for the future is essential. For our clients, the benefits of intentionally setting aside time for strategic planning far outweigh the costs. Don't get caught in the Sound-Check Spiral that keeps you stuck in endless preparation mode. Ease and joy belong at the center of your business strategy.

It's time to take a beat and refocus on why you started your business and how you will achieve your dream. And if DIY-ing your way through building sustainable business systems isn't your jam, that's fine. That's what we're here for. Our Strategic Planning Retreats allow committed business leaders and their teams to step out of the Sound Check Spiral and onto the main stage. We have spots remaining in Orlando, Chicago, and Lexington, KY, for Fall 2025. Book your obligation-free info call today to learn more about our 2026 Strategic Planning Intensive and decide if it's right for you. Until next time, Renia C. P.S. - I would never ask anyone to make such a big commitment based only on what they've read on a web page. If you like what you read about our Strategic Planning Retreats, the next step is to set up a fitting call. Let's chat and see how we can move your company forward together. Remember—this is your last week for subscriber-only access to these spots. |
Renia (pronounced R-EE-n-a) Carsillo hates business silos and marketing hacks. So, she spends her days working with mid-size and small companies to integrate their business strategy with their impact strategy, design sustainable marketing frameworks, and find a growth cadence that works for their team and their lives. Renia believes founders are uniquely positioned to create a kinder, more equitable world. She is passionate about bringing C-level strategic support to the small and mid-size companies shaping their communities every day. Renia says, "Sustainable marketing is built on a solid business strategy. A solid business strategy is built on values-driven habits. Values-driven habits are built on healed/healing leaders. We can’t do these things separately. They’re all interconnected. ”

Happy Tuesday, Reader! There's something magical that happens when you get offsite with your team. When you remove yourself from the daily distractions—the emails, the "quick questions," the endless interruptions—something shifts. You remember why you started this business in the first place. You reconnect with your team as humans, not just coworkers. And you finally have the space to think strategically about what's next. That's why I'm excited to announce our 2026 Fall Strategy Retreats....
