Where Will We Be In 30 Years? NatCon 2024 Hints At Cydcor’s Exciting Future.
3 decades of creating opportunity later… our 2024 National Conferences empowered the future while recognizing the incredible achievements in our rear-view mirror.
It’s very hard to “Celebrate 30 Years of Opportunity” without this thought coming to mind:
“How do we continue to create opportunity for ANOTHER 30 years?”
To keep our business running for generations to come, we have to recognize past achievements while also preparing for future opportunities.
At Cydcor‘s National Conferences 2024, we got to do both!
NatCon hit Toronto, Ontario in July, before heading to Arlington, Texas in August for our B2B/Residential and Retail events. Across all three events, close to 2,700 entrepreneurs, business leaders, and professionals from our network of ICLs attended.
It’s a far cry from where Cydcor was in 1994… when the entire business was just an idea in Founder Jim Majeski’s head. Looking at the scene at NatCon 2024, and feeling the energy from the crowd, it’s truly inspiring to see how far things have come.
And if you think Cydcor has been growing fast these past few decades, you should see the party at NatCon 2054 (when we hit 60)!
It’s next to impossible to come out of the latest NatCon without the sense that the biggest is still on the way. While we were there to “Celebrate 30 Years of Opportunity,” the programming was designed to challenge, motivate, and arm everyone with insights that will put new wins on the horizon.
Breakouts were run by CEO & President Vera Quinn, CRO Rich Mangafas, Executive Chairman Gary Polson, and top managers from independent ICLs from across the country. These breakouts blended wisdom from the years spent building and growing Cydcor, along with some cutting-edge business innovations that will forever change how ICLs maximize results and achievement in the field.
And along with their insights, these leaders were also able to tell some personal stories about their entrepreneurial journeys and their role in Cydcor’s first 30 years. Every single NatCon attendee has their own Cydcor story to tell, and it’s exciting to see how they’re evolving!
Special breakouts highlighted women in business, Black entrepreneurship, and veterans in business. Meetings where ICLs working on shared national campaigns could discuss strategy and insights. One incredibly eye-opening General Session where Cydcor leadership discussed the latest wins (in addition to what’s coming in the near future). This was a full-steam-ahead conference… and we left with years’ worth of actionable advice to take to our work!
And it wouldn’t be NatCon without our highly-anticipated Award Dinner (and the Cocktail Reception that comes before it). We were able to recognize and honor top performers from across Canada and the United States, and celebrate a number of people — both from independent ICLs and our own corporate office — who have recently hit major career milestones.
We even got to honor one of our Platinum Consultants, who has been with Cydcor for the ENTIRE 30-year journey (and counting)!
And if that wasn’t inspiring enough, the Award Dinner was also an opportunity for us to come together, share in the amazing results we all have achieved, and give back. Over the course of the dinner, we raised over $10k for Liberty Children’s Home.
Liberty Children’s Home is a Belize-based orphanage that Cydcor has been philanthropically supporting for the past 7 years. Home to over forty children, many who have experienced abuse, abandonment, and neglect in their lives, Liberty continues to be a cause that’s close to our heart.
The massive fundraising success at NatCon will help Liberty continue to support these amazing children and nurture a better future for them.
And as exciting as it’s been to celebrate our 30th anniversary and the amazing business achievements of professionals across our industry… seeing everyone band together for a bigger cause was the standout moment at NatCon 2024.
That’s one thing that hasn’t changed since 1994 — and it won’t be changing anytime soon. Cydcor is a business where people help people… and we’re working hard to instill that into the next generation of our business.
We weren’t just at NatCon 2024 to “Celebrate 30 Years of Opportunity”…
The event quickly became about “Creating 30 More Years of Opportunity.”
And while a lot is going to change in the next three decades, ONE thing is certain.
At NatCon 2054, we will be:
- Celebrating even MORE achievements
- Sharing even BETTER insights, stories, and wisdom
- Creating BIGGER impacts that make the world a better place
And if you WEREN’T at NatCon 2024, the next-best time to get on board is now.
