“OUR EMPLOYEES AND VENDORS ARE AS IMPORTANT TO US AS OUR CLIENTS."

Don Buford, CEO, International Institute for Business Information & Growth, LLC


Our Employment Philosophy:

At , iiBIG we believe in thinking BIG. That starts with the type of people we want in our organization. To keep good people, we believe that those with leadership skills and high needs for personal achievement should be appreciated, respected – and rewarded.

After all, our conferences are designed to help companies grow by creating opportunities for their executives to step back and look at the big picture.

Increasingly, the internal cultures of many organizations seek to mask mediocrity by giving lip service to the need for ‘team work’ rather than encouraging leadership and mutual trust. In such an environment, risk-takers, self-starters, and people with decision-making and leadership talents can be seen as a problem rather than an asset. When such small thinking takes hold, companies stagnate, growth is limited, and good people leave.*

At iiBIG, we are looking for LEADERS. People from whom much can be expected – but also people who have big expectations of themselves. Leaders who know that the only way to build self-worth is through accomplishment and achievement – and who rightfully expect to be appreciated – and generously rewarded – by an organization to which they contribute their talents.

If this describes YOU – then we are interested in meeting you to discuss a select number of personal growth opportunities available for big-thinkers at iiBIG.

* For an additional perspective on the idea that it is leaders who act – not ’teams’ that meet – that are key in successful organizations, take a moment to read an essay by the late Guy Odom at http://www.guyodom.com/or11.pdf. In 1977, Guy Odom became CEO of USHome, a homebuilding company with annual revenues of about $370 million.  In less than three years, he built USHome into the largest homebuilding company in the world with over $1Billion in annual revenues!

CONFERENCE PRODUCERS

The International Institute for Business Information & Growth (iiBIG) organizes business-to-business conference for senior executives. Due to rapid growth over the last 12 months, our company is creating new opportunities and adding staff in our mid-town NYC office.

We are currently seeking two (2) CONFERENCE PRODUCERS who possess leadership skills and entrepreneurial instincts. A demonstrable track record of successfully producing business-to-business conferences in the areas of FINANCE, CAPITAL MARKETS and M&A is preferred.

iiBIG is not a conference ‘chop-shop.’ As an iiBIG conference producer you are expected to produce a minimum of four (4) well-planned conferences each year. Producer profit-share bonuses are based on a generous percentage of gross revenues – not ‘net profits.’ So if you have been consistently producing profitable high-grossing conferences only to see your profits become ‘losses' due to ‘creative accounting' – contact us. Rewarding high-achievers is what we consider, ‘thinking iiBIG.'

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT DIRECTORS

iiBIG is looking for rainmakers: People who know how to reach, and comfortably communicate with top marketing and sales executives within companies that offer business-to-business solutions, products and services to our clients in specific target industries.

We need big-thinkers who can articulate our incredible value proposition to such marketing and sales executives: namely, that by becoming a leading sponsor of an iiBIG executive conference, they can reach our clients – the senior decision-makers who can pull the trigger on a decision to do business with their firm.

Experience in selling sponsorships in the conference industry is a plus, but not a must. As an iiBIG Business Development Director you will receive ongoing training and mentoring from one of the conference industry’s recognized business development leaders.

MARKETING DIRECTORS

Awake. Creative. Tenacious. Big thinker. This describes the professional marketing leaders we are looking for at iiBIG. We know that busy executives in our target industries have lots of conferences from which to choose. And we know they are bombarded with opportunities to learn from – and network – with their peers.

There are myriad ways to reach these business leaders; and we are looking for marketing professionals who know all the tricks – media partnerships, direct-mail, e-mail, press releases – but also, someone who can think up new ways to reach the busy executives in our market. If you are tired of doing things in the same-old-way – and have some BIG new tricks up your sleeve you’ve been wanting to try, send us your resume.
