New Kids on the Flock

Helping you spread your wings and fly

 

Many of us look back on our first few years in the Channel and think: if only I'd done this differently! Or known about that key opportunity! It can feel like you’re trying to find your way all on your own.

Not anymore... 

Welcome to New Kids on the Flock. Our goal with this program is to create a community where channel newbies can learn how to avoid some common pitfalls and find success in the early years of their careers.

Channel House of Horrors: From Terror to Triumph
October 31, 2022 - 10 am PT / 1:00 pm ET

In this Halloween edition of the NKOTF, we’re going back to the fun, dressed in our Halloween costumes!

In the spirit of the spooky season, we'll be sharing hair-raising stories from our time in the channel. We’ll share terrifying tales of horror (like missing a booth shipment or botching a presentation) and what we’ve learned from them.

Most of all, we’ll talk about how these terrifying mishaps are not our downfall, but rather learning opportunities. And they make great stories!

Afterward, we’ll do a round of “trick or treating” and go through our swag haul from the past month on the road.

Finally, we'll close out with a giveaway to a very lucky winner!
