Our theme speaks directly to our members and friends — Creative and Handmade Entrepreneurs. As the Indie Business Network continues to support their businesses, we are also coaching and mentoring them to to expand their sphere of influence and customer base by positioning themselves to enjoy complementary streams of income that help them leverage and build on past successes. #IndieCruise 2015 will be all about that. Here are more specific reasons why I'm excited to invite you to Unleash Your Awesome with me in the Caribbean next year.

No leashes allowed
One of the definitions of “unleash” is “to abandon control of.” In business, this means removing all limits where your personal potential is concerned. The #IndieCruise 2015 theme, speakers and topics encourage unleashed thinking, and we will work together (in between snorkeling and sun bathing) to achieve the clarity of focus and accountability that produces unleashed results in 2015.

Be awesome
There was a time when you could shrink back and enjoy enough attention to sustain your business. That's not the case anymore. The world is a very noisy place for our customers, and we have to be focused on creating awesome experiences for them or they will not hear us for all the background noise.
On #IndieCruise 2015, you'll learn how to rise above he crowd and stand out in ways that make you and your products awesome and unforgettable.

Brand with definiteness of purpose
Your brand is your bond. It's your promise to the world that you know what you want to deliver, and that you stand behind it 100%. As an entrepreneur, you have at least two brands: one for yourself personally and one for your business. The two must intersect and overlap on multiple levels.
Making this happen continuously and seamlessly is ongoing process that requires consistent focus and energy, and we will be stirring that pot hard all week long on this cruise.
Whether it's an idea to create your own branded signature event, stake your claim at a fair or show, protect your brand legally, or create a personal brand that becomes the physical manifestation of your business, we will cover it all on Indie Cruise 2015.
I cannot even begin to say how much you need to be there.

Breakthrough all barriers
Is there something holding you back? Whatever it is, it's nothing a little snorkeling and a few afternoons Masterminding in the Caribbean cannot fix.
To be successful in business, you need tenacity and perseverance. You also need a network of proactive, supportive friends. Combine that with the world-class content you'll enjoy on #IndieCruise 2015 and you are golden.
