Brian and I are so thrilled to have Jeff Jochum, the VP of Pictage, fly in from LA today to spend the day with us. I can’t tell you how honored I was when Jeff suggested this at WPPI. With how crazy our schedules are, I wasn’t sure if it would happen. But Jeff has totally made this trip a priority and he arrives at noon! We can’t wait to show him around, and if he’s lucky, he’ll get to have a horti-torture tour of our garden!

If you are an entrepreneur, you must see Jeff’s website. Check out his 14 tips for guidance. I especially like #11. He has done this with Pictage over and over again. Can anyone imagine a community of photographers like Pictage?

11. Cultivate a culture of openness:
Foster an atmosphere of honesty and candor and lay the framework for collaboration and communication amongst team members.

Jeff Jochum’s resume is overwhelming with how many multi-million dollar companies he’s been the CEO or VP of. For Brian and I to have some alone time with him and pick his brain is such a gift!

I’ll be sure to share how our day went. I know Brian and I are going to be different people after today!

Off to the airport!
