SAVVY: An Audience Excited & Eager To Learn



Experience with the "SAVVY Weekend" as a facilitator --
I was honored to be a presenter at the first Savvy Weekend. I found the audience excited and eager to learn. I immediately thought of Les Brown's sentiment regarding learning, and that you have to be h-u-n-g-r-y! And they were.

The participants listened intently and asked targeted questions. The ladies were literally transformed before your very eyes! I saw faces light up with enthusiasm and a silent vow of "I can do THIS" resonated throughout the room. My session ended with affirmations and resolutions to move forward with their writing projects, and the added assurance that they had a resource available when needed.

SAVVY: Stepping Out of My Confort Zone


SAVVY was such a unique experience. This is not your typical transformational weekend as we are used to with church conferences.  The weekend was engaging and it grabbed me from the beginning. SAVVY took me out of my comfort zone and made me dig way past my surface and identify who I really am. Because of that,  I now have a connection to my future business that goes way beyond just having a title certificate and some business cards. The knowledge I gleaned from each presenter lit a new fire under me to accomplish my goals in business and ministry! I have applied to take my counselor's exam to become a licensed professional counselor and shortly I will be sending my application in to get my business title. I'm so glad and grateful that I was able to participate!!

SAVVY: A Sign Language Interpreter Moves Forward


WOW!!! SAVVY was an eye awakening moment for me. I realized I should be using the things that God had provided for me. My passion and dream is ‘interpreting’. As a person who was born deaf I have a passion to teach sign language and to serve as an interpreter for others. I had many questions prior to attending SAVVY for example; I often wondered how I was to precede.

Here’s my challenge: trying to accomplish my goals while living everyday life and not having the ability to stop to do what I need to do to build an interpreting business or serve as an independent consultant for an already established business. I want to keep moving towards my dreams, but get distracted with life as a single mom of two children. I desire to help deaf people with their everyday life by serving as an interpreter.

I currently work for a larger grocery store in Ohio. When I see someone needing assistance I sign to the customer without any hesitation. Management often will call me up front to ask me to sign for customers needing assistance. I keep saying I need to get busy and get my interpreter certificate and move on with my life, and SAVVY assisted me to move forward. I'm planning to go back to school in January to finish my associate degree and complete the first level in order to move to the next level!

It has been eye opening after getting all the correct information and understanding that women need to stand for themselves. I'm got the right information now how can I use it? By following my dreams!

Ready to follow your dreams? Register for SAVVY: A Transformational Weekend Experience November 14 & 15, 2014 today by clicking here. Only 25 seats available.

SAVVY: Two Businesses and Counting

SAVVY! This two-day session propelled me forward. Since attending in August 2014 SAVVY positioned me to do more than I could ever think or imagine. It helped me put things into perspective as the owner of 'A Room In A Zoum Cleaning' a cleaning business. I registered my cleaning business and trade-name with the Ohio Secretary of State along with launching a marketing firm 'The Perfect Touch'. SAVVY also motivated me to finish my book. I was at a stopping point until I attended SAVVY and learned that my story is my story and it is ok to write it because there is someone who needs to hear what I have to say.

I am moving...it seems as though I am moving to fast, but I just cannot stop. I am super motivated. There's something different about this in-depth session where I am unable to look back or become stagnant. There's nothing like SAVVY: A Transformational Weekend Experience.

Do you have a dream to start a business, ministry, or nonprofit organization? Do you dream of politics? Do you dream of doing something different in your life? I would recommend SAVVY to anyone who has a dream, anyone who has a passion to see better for their life. I strongly recommend Savvy. Let me be the first to tell you, I have a dream however I put my dream on hold for the sake of others. Through SAVVY I now understand it is okay for me to work my dream while helping you to promote your dream. If you have never listened to anything anyone has said to you, listen to this, IT IS TIME FOR YOUR DREAM TO BECOME A REALITY!! Register for SAVVY now! Here's a snap shot of the agenda:

SAVVY: A Book In The Making


I am so glad that I attended the SAVVY in-depth two-day conference. At first I wanted to make sure that only my daughter made it because I knew she needed the extra push in the right direction. By being her mom I had grown tired talking to her about her life and what to do with it. However, I was allowed to attended the conference by the grace of God and it was a blessing. SAVVY for me was an eye opener, learning event which included so much needed information I would have never had received anywhere else. My cup was running over by the time that we left out of there the end of day one.

After I left SAVVY I did my PowerPoint as suggested by one of the expert facilitators Sandee Hemphill for the start of my book. I have tried to add little by little onto my outline. I will say it is hard at times, but I am doing it. If it wasn't for SAVVY I wouldn't be this far.

By attending SAVVY it had a positive impact on me to write, put my feelings on paper, and get it out to the public. If you are in need of writing a life plan, become an entrepreneur, start a nonprofit or a ministry, or write a book or grow into a new career I would encourage you to register for SAVVY November 14 and 15, 2014 in Columbus, Ohio.

If there is anyone out there who has a dream of starting a business or any type of adventure and don't know how to get going SAVVY is the place for you to be. Tons of information and personalities and people willing to talk to you, and assist you. People willing to hear your story and give you the extra push that you need to get you on your way. There isn't anyone there who will laugh at you and tell you that you can't do that. No matter how hard it may be, they will help you find the solution to get you to your starting point. Praise God for good Christian business women who are there to lift you up and hold you accountable. 


There are only 25 slots available. You truly do not want to miss this opportunity. Register today by clicking here: http://www.gaildudley.com/savvy.html

SAVVY: A Life Investment

 To order: Tmgpremier@gmail.com

Since attending SAVVY I have begun to make changes to invest in myself by laying out my plans to launch my own business. Thanks to attending SAVVY I am moving forward with my business "Simply Blessed Creations." Images above are a sample of one component of my business. Researching and weighing in on what it is that I really want to do, deciding on what really makes me happy... what really makes my heart sing!!!

In reflecting on my SAVVY attendance... It has provided me with information and resources to enable me to put forth the effort get my feet up off the ground and began to move. The wealth of information packed into this two day event is overwhelming. If I don't succeed, it's by no means anyone fault but my own... because it's up to me to take the teachings and information provided by SAVVY and use to my advantage.

Just remember SAVVY provides us with the essential tools, what we choose to do with those tools after we leave SAVVY is totally up to us!

I encourage everyone (that is ready to "fail forward" - Eric Thomas and "Turn your No to it's ON"- Sandee Hemphill ) to register for the next SAVVY. You will not be disappointed! I traveled from North Carolina on a mission to grow and learn from SAVVY. It was worth the drive-time and the investment.

There was a wealth of information packed into the two day event.

Presenters were compelling, experienced professionals that provided in-depth teachings expanding our knowledge of topics relevant to our success. They... No Doubt... made an impact on us.

Thank you Gail for your willingness to embrace the women where they are and offer them the opportunity to make a Life Investment. SAVVY is awesome!!!

Don't wait! Only 25 seats available for the November 14 & 15, 2014 two-day SAVVY event. Register here:  http://www.gaildudley.com/savvy.html
