B!G Mix Of Mentor Offers

Since October The B!G Idea have been offering discounts to our 2022 Mentors as a little way of saying thank you for being a B!G part of us. It can be easy to forget some of these offers and so we are putting together a little reminder of what we have had to date that you can still avail of.

Our first offer was a 10% discount off everything from the Arboretum, the first 5-star garden and lifestyle destination in Ireland. The Arboretum is a garden and home heaven situated in the picturesque villages of Leighlinbridge and Kilquade. To garden lovers it is a sanctuary with an incredible range of plants, flowers, trees and shrubs all year round. Beautifully displayed and spaciously laid out, it is impossible not to spend hours pottering around. Staff at the Arboretum are tuned in and knowledgeable and will be able to answer any questions you may have online or in store. To find out more about the Arboretum check out the website on www.arboretum.ie.

Next up was Buddabag with 20% discount off Buddabags. If you don’t know what a Buddabag is, you haven’t lived! A Buddabag quite simply is an experience. They are 100% handmade in Ireland and come in a massive selection of colour, fabric and sizes. Buddabags are durable, comfortable, colourful and cool. Kids love them to lounge in while reading a book or watching tv but equally adults are happy to sink in and rest their weary bones for a while. There are even ones available for your pet so literally something for everyone in the family!

After availing of some nice gardening advice and chilling out on a Buddabag we felt it was time to pull up the socks a bit and so we were thrilled to work with 2Y3X to offer 30% off their two-day value proposition workshop, 10% off their full workshop and 20% off their Accelerator course. You know the way it is, one day your business is rolling along doing just fine and the next it seems to be in a slump. Progress slows down and growth comes to a standstill. You try everything you can think of but nothing seems to work and things begin to spiral. Most businesses at some stage go through this phase and it can cause a huge amount of stress and anxiety. This is where 2Y3X comes in. 2Y3X is made up of influential industry experts from a range of creative, marketing, digital and technology agencies, media and production companies, engineering and related manufacturing and supply chain firms, social impact companies, tech start-ups and professional services firms.

No one wants to spend any more time than necessary working on taxes and numbers and and so the Small Business Payroll are offering to help out with a 10% discount off their package. This Irish owned company based in Co Louth is run by three phenomenal women all with backgrounds in tax and management. They are able to take the sting out of being an employer, leaving you to do the fun stuff and not worry about the tricky taxes. And the best bit of all is they are offering a 10% discount to The B!G Idea Mentors of 2022.

January is always a time for resolutions. Do you want to learn new skills in 2022? Do you want to grow your design and innovation capabilities? The B!G Idea can offer 15% discount off all training and events with This Is Doing. Some of the courses coming up include Facilitation Fundamentals for Co-Creation; This Is Service Design Doing/Essentials – Recording; Doing Remote Research; Journey Mapping Essentials; This Is Service Design Doing. These courses will all take place in November and provide direct access to industry thought-leaders in the areas of experience design, service design and product management. Courses galore and something for everyone.

Our friends at Manageable are offering 20% off their coaching courses. B!G Mentors have B!G ambitions and Manageable can help those ambitions come to life. Manageable work at teaching coaching skills to the managers of teams. It has been evident from the pandemic and history in general that tomorrow’s team leaders make brilliant coaches. During the pandemic people had to step up to the plate and it was obvious who the real leaders in a team were. If these managers can become coaches to their team, it means that everyone in the organisation will have access to one. Through Manageable, these coaches will learn about and practice coaching to boost team wellbeing and performance.

And to make coming back to work after Christmas more bearable, Stribe are offering 35% off. Stribe’s modus operandi is to create workplaces for people to thrive in. We all know how important it is for people to work in teams and keeping everyone on these teams happy and on the same page can be quite a challenge. Stribe help every person on the team to be heard by doing sentiment analysis, key phrase extraction and a lot of other clever tricks to develop confidence among the team members leading to a happier workplace. Imagine if you could honestly say that every day in the office felt like a Friday? That’s what Stribe offer to bring to your team.

All of these incredible offers can be accessed through your personal dashboard and there will be many more coming up so log in quick and make the most of them. You deserve it!
