Celebrating 5 Years in Business - The "Fresh Pitch"
Hi there! Welcome to Ansley Insights, a monthly-ish email from yours truly and Ansley Corporate Entertainment.
I’m thrilled to share that my business turned 5 this October!
It’s been a whirlwind—from launching Beerly Funny in 2019, to later transforming into Ansley Corporate Entertainment, where we connect ideas and audiences with a blend of entertainment and training.
So, allow me to reintroduce myself...
“Hi, I'm Lauren Ansley. I'm the founder and CEO - that's Chief Entertainment Officer - of Ansley Corporate Entertainment, where we connect ideas and audiences through entertainment and training.
Our talented team of entertainers and I bring energy, engagement, and a dose of humor to corporate events, and our presentation skills training programs empower professionals to communicate with confidence and charisma.
If these past five years have taught me anything, it’s that we don’t have to stay the same. We can evolve, adapt, and keep connecting with each other and our ideas.
Thank you for being part of the journey—as a client, colleague, or friend - maybe even all three.
~ Lauren Ansley, Founder & CEO
Ansley Corporate Entertainment"
So, what's new with Ansley Corporate Entertainment? So glad you asked...
