Good morning, Monday! Okay, first can we just acknowledge the elephant in the room? Osama bin Laden is gone… What a victory for our nation, our intelligence team, and special forces.
Okay, second order of business! What’s the sweepstakes all about? Well, let me just tell you.
And for those video-impaired people, here’s the low-down in text:
You may have remembered a post back in January regarding a weekend of RTP inspiration, brainstorming, and actualization. A time when four members of our team got together to talk about where we really want to take this business. We’ve revamped everything under the sun from business cards, to price lists, to thank you cards, to the language we use to describe what we do. We realized our true vision for this business and why we do what we do. It was a powerful weekend and you’ll continue to see its fruits throughout the year and especially if you’re an RTP bride or groom.
Okay, so that sweepstakes thing…. In honor of THREE incredibly big announcements that will be delivered on Friday, we want to just give away stuff. Because that’s what we do. One of our love languages is Gift Giving…. so can we just LOVE on you for the week and give you stuff??
Every day for this week we’re going to be giving away a few of my favorite things. Yeah, if Oprah can do it, so can René. :-D And the gifts do get progressively cooler as the days go on!
All you have to do is leave a comment in little box below this post. We’ll draw a winner at random the next morning and have your gift mailed or delivered to you. It’s just that easy! One comment per person, please. :-) And definitely come back every day to enter again! And don’t forget that Friday’s the big day with THREE big announcements!
Sooooo…. Today’s Favorite Thing is a $10 Starbucks gift card! We’ll be giving away 2 of them!
Ready, set, comment!

René + team: I think it’s great that you’ve taken a step back to re-evaluate RTP and the future. It’s a brave thing to acknowledge what might not be working and to recognize all the successes you’ve had. Great job, RTP. Keep up the good work!
I think the future will be great for RTP! Great seeing you the other day. Started the books..they are amazing!
