the Better Way to Connect
Most people are tired or terrified of the typical networking event.
There are better ways to get to know someone.
Cheese cubes to the left of you, open bar to your right – stuck in the middle with a boring conversation. The Interesting Conversations Company™ was created to change that. After accumulating more than 10,000 hours of networking time, the founder Deedre Daniel, created a training class called: “How to be More Interesting Than a Cell Phone”™, which combines funny stories from the convention circuit with valuable communication skills for people needing to develop new business for their company or looking to make new friends.
Are you tired of those same old networking events?
Event attendees learn how to apply those interesting communication techniques with an interactive card game immediately after the presentation. This can be done in any venue with tables, sound system and a projection screen.
And companies sponsoring the conference reception will get more advertising value because the game can include a card with an interesting fact or question about the company. The outside of the box can be branded with their logo, too. And that company’s associates can be strategically placed at each table so that they effectively connect with everyone at the party.
Winners of the game can take it home as a prize. Or enough games can be purchased for all attendees to enjoy as a special party favor. That is more marketing value than just a logo on a banner or cocktail napkin, right?
Our goal is to help event attendees make new friends and business connections, develop new skills and generate new ideas, which should result in repeat event attendance next year, too.
Hire The Interesting Conversations Company for your next networking event, team building or sales training class. It’s the better way to connect!

The Interesting Conversation Game ™
This game will rapidly shorten the time it takes to get to know someone at a networking event, party or date. It cuts past surface level pleasantries and creates a comfortable environment where people can relax, laugh and learn. The game seeks to light up parts of the brain that may be lying dormant, which are those parts that have been lulled to sleep – paradoxically – by our “always on” culture.
It is divided into five sections that captures the player’s imagination through “Conversation Spikes” ™ and improv comedy exercises; trains players how to present thoughtful arguments through team debates on non-political topics (Which way should toilet paper hang?); challenges assumed knowledge and builds critical thinking skills; and sets the stage for conversations that are so captivating that no one wants to look at their phone for something more interesting.
