My Creative Team designed a relationship management program to keep past students informed, motivated and eager to make referrals.

To entice others onto the list, My Creative Team used a Forward –To-A-Friend feature and book giveaway promotions. Additionally, the team developed a series of articles and placed them in other widely read enewsletters. The list has grown to 2,500 and the Zipline continues to be Ty Boyd Executive Learning System’s primary communication tool. Additionally, My Creative Team has designed the cover for Ty Boyd's latest book, Make It Happen - 52 Weeks with Ty Boyd.
