Mutual of Omaha is traveling cross-country in search of local business owners’ “aha moments.”
Defined by Mutual of Omaha as a moment when someone has a “clarity of purpose,” these aha moments have inspired Mutual of Omaha ad campaigns for the last five years.
Phoenix residents will have a chance on May 11 and 12 to hop into an airstream trailer (containing a state-of-the-art recording studio), tell their most inspiring business stories and possibly land a spot in one of Mutual of Omaha’s 30-second ads to run in 2016. The tour is hitting 20 cities over a 7,700-mile spread.
Ten business owners shared their moments on May 11, including Sandra Dee, CEO of Sandra Dee’s Creole Catering.
“Sandra Dee’s aha moment was after losing her job and being unable to land a new one due to being overqualified,” says a spokeswoman for the tour. “She realized that she loved cooking and decided to open up a food truck, Sandra Dee’s Creole Catering. Now, she can be found all over the city serving up the finest in creole cuisine.”
Local business owners can sign up for a chance to share at mutualofomaha.com/aha. Taping takes place at The Heard Museum in downtown Phoenix (2301 N. Central Ave.).
