LADIES NIGHT & LIFE SIZE MONOPOLY FUN

Friday, September 12th Insights Group hosted a life-sized Monopoly Game and themed Ladies Night Out. The InSightopoly game featured over 35 vendors who were each a stop on the game board, which was designed promote a conversation styled trade show-a new venue for vendors and service providers to establish Connections in the local market. There were several presentations featured throughout the fun-filled event. Judy Shepard of a Miracle Today spoke about alternative healing sources, several vendors were on hand with samples of their foods, products, and Dr. Nicole Bittner of Hands on Health Chiropractic was offering complementary spinal scans. Israel Retana of Good As New, an antique furniture restoration company was the event Emcee and kept the crowd in high spirits throughout the evening. Mr. Moneybags, (aka Allan Curtis) was live and in person handing out Community Chest and Chance opportunities. Some guests were thrown into the mock “Jail” by either drawing the chance card or running into one of the officers (Sandra Maki and Jim Gray) during the evening. To Get Out of Jail guests were encouraged to roll doubles with a life-size set of die, or donate money which went to support the local Breast Cancer fundraising campaign.

The vendors loved the show style and interaction.”I just want to say thank you for organizing a great evening last Friday. That was the first time I have participated in any kind of vendor show, and I am a convert! It was clear that InSights Group worked hard to create a fun and rewarding evening for all the participants--vendors and attendees alike. I met a lot of great people and I look forward to many more such events. Great job!”--Chris Freeze, MonaVie.
“I just would like to tell you again how much I enjoyed your ladies night out. I have worked a few other Ladies night out events and this was by far the best I have ever been a part of. Along with making some good connections with possible future clients I had a lot of fun. When I first heard about the insight-opoly I was wondering about it but it was great. It in a fun way made people go to all of the vendors and meet them. Even though I did go to jail twice. (It was all for charity!) Thanks again!”--Dan Winters, Dan’s Back and Body Shop
“I heard over and over again, especially from the new vendors---they had never been to anything like this before and they just loved it. Vendors actually thought it was "more" productive than the normal women's expo!”—Alan Smith, LAMOCU Media Services


Ladies Night is a new way for businesses to market themselves through a personal dialogue with potential consumers that adds value to everyone. Guests and attendees are introduced to new products and businesses in a casual, relaxed environment. It’s a great chance to interact and have new experiences that you can’t find in a magazine or online. Also, many vendors provide free samples or provide special offers.
The next Ladies Night is scheduled for Friday, November 14th 2008, and will feature a “Holiday Shoppe.” The show wouldn’t be complete without its own theme…so guests can come prepared to meet Ms. Scarlet, Ms. Peacock, Mr. Green, Colonel Mustard and Professor Plum as they try to find the clues and solve the mystery who done it game of Clue. Vendor spaces are available-guests of vendors will get receive admission at no charge. The event runs from 6-10pm.
