FREE FLOWING IDEAS

Awhile ago, I attended the regular Wednesday meeting of our sponsoring Rotary Club of Cubao. We caught up the fellowship portion only as work schedule did not permit to be on time in their meeting proper.

The should be chit-chat talk only turned into a very productive and strategic discussion with the few good men left. The topic revolved around fund raising activities that should outweigh the presented annual calendar of activities and projected expenses.

Some of the interesting fund raising ideas were:
• Cost operation efficiency to save on expenses
• Coordinating with “Cooperatives” as selling outlets of our previous “products”
• Undergo “Cooperative” training and accreditation then later conduct series of trainings targeted to companies without cooperatives
• Hosting of Rotakids party

As a result of our spontaneous conversation, we will have a dedicated talk on “Rotaract and Business Strategies” come August. The talk will be a panel discussion type with one (1) main moderator and three (3) facilitators; all of which are our Rotarians.

One of the best advantage in Rotaract is you get to take a glimpse on how top executives and businessmen think out of the box, the idea of “selling” simple ideas into “marketable” packages.

What a productive and borderless exchange of ideas!
