You won't find this level of connections and conversations at Booth #1423... Reflecting on the evolution of Crüe Club, the decision to enhance its value and potential has truly been rewarding. Initially launched to assist E&P Operators in expanding their networks, I noticed many colleagues struggled to find new opportunities due to limited networking depth, transaction-focused interactions, and the overwhelming nature of networking events. The events were invitational, and unstructured, with the goal of genuine connections. After hosting 125 events and engaging nearly 1,000 Operators, we've leveled up our invitational events to offer more focused, educational, and topical discussions. These sessions have unlocked a treasure trove of insights and new perspectives, with one attendee likening them to "MBA-level discussions." In our commitment to not only connect but also foster personal and professional growth, we're excited to introduce our Growth Workshops this summer (powered by Exec Crüe ). The inaugural series will focus on Goals & Control, designed for ambitious professionals eager to network while cultivating a mindset of ownership and accountability for their paths. While there’s more on the horizon, Crue Club is rapidly becoming the essential hub for E&P operators committed to building strategic networks and enhancing their knowledge through targeted discussions and connections. Pretty proud of how far we've come and the road ahead. Thank you all for the support, especially our Crue Club members who play chess when everyone is playing checkers.

A month ago, I went camping ⛺ in Montana and this is what I learned about business 🤣... No, seriously, I learned a lot. And it's all thanks to Jason and Sam, the masterminds behind the Arcadia Leadership Experience (ALX) 🐻. ALX is the best professional event that I’ve ever attended and it provided me with invaluable insights and knowledge. So, take a moment and don't miss out on Spencer Miller's brilliant recap video! But want to learn more and hear some of the best sound bites? Here goes: 🌲 TL;DR 🌲 The days of just talk are gone, every partnership leader must have a plan, must execute, and must follow through, always backed up by data! Additionally, here are some of the best gold nuggets that ALX gave us: 🐻 When setup well, partnerships can become the most efficient revenue machines, and partner-led motions are the biggest reason why orgs are growing. - Sangram Vajre ⛺ Every partnership leader must understand the cost of their team and what it takes to be profitable. - Cory Snyder 🦕 In any company, you need to be doing one of 3 things: building the product, selling the product, or supporting either of those teams. If you don’t, you’ll find it hard to get buy-in. - Mac Reddin 🦕 🌲 94% of event teams think they are killing it, but only 6% of their executives agree. - Kevin Harris 🦌 When deciding to build, buy, or partner, think long term. What is your core business? What is nice to have? Analyze your needs and priorities, and weigh them against your options. – Sean Kester & Josh Wagner 🏔 Experiment early and often, and make sure you dedicate a portion of your budget to big bets. This will help you differentiate and grow. - Tyler Calder 🔦 To build trust with partners, you must invest time to understand how their machine works, how the “sausage is made." - Padden Guy Murphy Will you be with us at #ALX2025? Spot reservations are open! Be Great. Be Arcadia 🐻. #Partnerships #ProfessionalDevelopment #Networking #Career #Community

There is no better time than now to connect with any of the 8 billion people around the globe. The world is your oyster and the potential is unlimited. In the past 10 years, neuroscientists, psychologists and economists have made quantum leaps in understanding why some of us flourish in happy, healthy lives and others do not. What’s become clear is that we’re not just connected to others... We are the very product of the people and networks to which we are connected. Who you know determines who you are – how you feel, how you act, and what you achieve. This is just one more reason why we’re committed to bringing the best networking tools and systems into a playbook you can follow.

For the past three days, I attended the Vets24 Conference, which focused on the growth and success of veteran-owned businesses wanting to contract with the Federal Government. The event brought together federal government agencies, large prime contractors, and veteran small businesses, creating an inspiring environment for collaboration and innovation. Networking is more than just exchanging business cards—it's about building relationships, sharing knowledge, and discovering new opportunities. Here are a few key takeaways on why networking is essential for achieving business goals: Building Valuable Connections: Engaging with fellow veterans, industry leaders, and government representatives opens doors to new partnerships and collaborations. These connections can lead to business opportunities that otherwise might not have been possible. Sharing Knowledge and Expertise: Conferences like these provide a platform to exchange ideas, best practices, and experiences. Learning from others' successes and challenges helps us refine our strategies and drive our businesses forward. Increasing Visibility: By actively participating in networking events, we increase our visibility within the industry. This visibility can increase credibility and recognition, making establishing trust and attracting new clients or partners easier. Access to Resources: Networking with federal agencies and large primes can lead to obtaining valuable resources, including funding opportunities, mentorship, and support programs specifically designed for veteran-owned businesses. Inspiring Growth: Hearing success stories and innovative ideas from fellow veterans is incredibly motivating. It reminds us that we can overcome any obstacle and achieve our business goals with determination and the right connections. In today's interconnected world, the power of networking cannot be overstated. It is a vital tool for personal and professional growth, and I am grateful for the chance to connect with such a dynamic and supportive community. Let's continue to support each other, share our stories, and build a thriving ecosystem for veteran-owned businesses! https://lnkd.in/g2PdF36p #Vets24 #Networking #BusinessGrowth #Entrepreneurship #BarkerAndBarkerConsulting #FederalContracts #Leadership

Thrilled to share my excitement after attending National 8(a) Association National Small Business Conference! It's not just an event; it's the premier hub for small businesses, offering education, matchmaking, networking, and resources for growth in the federal contracting arena. Stepping into the National 8(a) Conference was stepping into a realm of knowledge. Surrounded by fellow business owners, I soaked in insights, experiences, and wisdom that transcended textbooks. The conference wasn't just a gathering; it was a transformative learning experience. Whether you're a minority, aspiring entrepreneur, current 8(a), or part of various small business categories, the conference was a melting pot of opportunities. It brought together federal agencies, large business primes, and corporate companies, providing a unique chance to connect, collaborate, and learn from the best. Attendees didn't just bring business cards; they brought a wealth of knowledge. My advice? Dive into such conferences with an open mind, engage with fellow business owners, and absorb the diverse perspectives. The opportunities and insights gained are invaluable. The National 8(a) Conference isn't just an event; it's a catalyst for business growth. As I leave with a wealth of knowledge, I'm inspired to implement new strategies, forge partnerships, and elevate my business to new heights. To fellow entrepreneurs, mark your calendars for the next National 8(a) Conference. Join this transformative experience, connect with industry leaders, and unlock the doors to federal contracting opportunities.
