About this FieldTrip

Are you an independent creative, side-hustler, or solopreneur? Grab a coffee and join us for an interactive FieldTrip on how to slay your first, (or 5th, or 100th) RFP (Request for Proposal) as a growing entrepreneur.

Cindy Lo, event strategist and owner of Red Velvet Events, will help break down what can be a daunting and scary thing - submitting your first formal RFP. Using an event as an example, and drawing from RVE’s framework, Cindy will illustrate some techniques to help your formal RFP process.

This FieldTrip is perfect for designers, photographers, marketers, filmmakers, and fill-in-the-blank - anyone wanting to jumpstart 2019 with a better idea of how to respond to an RFP request and win more creative business.

How to make the most of FieldTrips

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.

Show up fully

Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.

Stay curious

Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going! 

Celebrate your host

Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.

Support each other

We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things.  Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.

Not vibing?

It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
