What We Do
There’s nothing more powerful than a remarkable idea put into action. It can drive sales, build pride, attract more customers, differentiate you from your competition, and create change.
Over the years, there are four key reasons people contact and work with Idea Sandbox. They want to do one, or a combination of, the following:
Brainstorming
There is great satisfaction in starting the day with a challenge, and ending with a choice of remarkable solutions. Whether it is developing your FY’12 strategy, crafting the “big idea” for your consumer promotion, or creating a clever product name… I will lead your team through a custom-built brainstorming session that meets your specific needs and solves the challenge.
At work and home we brainstorm or develop strategy for one (or a combination) of the following reasons.
By the end of our time together, not only will you have a slew of ideas, but we will also narrow them to the fewer, bigger, and better. You can return to your office that much closer to your plan of action. Guaranteed!
Idea Sandbox sessions include…
- Hand-crafted strategy session to meet or exceed our objective and customized for the specific group.
- Work with you before the session to clearly define objectives.
- Templates and tools we will use to run the session.
- Post-session recap – so you have the ideas and the decisions we made documented.

Based on your needs, any of Paul’s topics can be expanded to: a conference break-out session, training session (1/2 day) or full-day workshop.
Each presentation is customized to meet the requirements of your group.
