Forging EO Richmond: Lessons Learned from Launching an EO Chapter
In EO’s 30-year history, members have led the formation of 196 chapters. With 14,000-plus members, only a few hundred have taken on the significant challenge of forming a new chapter. We asked EO Richmond President Michael Mahoney what it takes to launch a new chapter. And while every chapter and every launch is unique, entrepreneurs around the world will certainly relate to his journey of building something from nothing.
Launching an EO chapter is exactly like launching a start-up company. You have to go into it with the mindset that you are launching a start-up nonprofit as a volunteer. That means you are doing everything from the very beginning, using templates and guides from EO.
As an enthusiastic EO DC member since 2003, I missed the camaraderie, connections and learning events with my EO family after moving to Virginia. So, I decided to start a new EO chapter—starting from scratch, with no established connections in my new city.
It was an intense journey filled with cold-calling potential new members, leveraging resources, producing events that appeal to both strategic alliance partners (SAPs) and potential members, and implementing the strategies and structure for a successful organization.
Every EO chapter launch is unique, but there are underlying struggles we all have in common. Here are nine strategies I learned that may prove helpful if you’re considering starting an EO chapter.
1. Hire a strong chapter manager.
If your chapter can afford one—even part-time—a strong chapter manager can make or break your chapter. This person must possess specific skills and, in an ideal scenario, is a full-time employee. In addition to strong verbal and written communication, attention to detail, organizational and follow-through skills, your chapter manager must be assertive and have a thick skin to handle criticism and direct communication and to push back when needed. They’ll be dealing with EO members, and we all know entrepreneurs can be both demanding and determined.
While interviewing for our chapter manager, I leveraged techniques from previous EO learning events that provided insights for interviewing and hiring the right person for this critical seat, including:
• Before our phone interview, I sent a long, detailed email to candidates asking them to call me and role-play. They were to pretend they already had the job and were inviting me to attend an EO event. During the call, I pushed back on why I was too busy to attend. It was on them to research EO and provide logical, persuasive reasons why I should attend. This helped me discover: Could they do the research? How good were their pitch skills? Did they seem stressed? Robotic? Natural? • I casually asked candidates to bring two copies of their resume, unfolded in manila envelopes, and two No. 2 pencils. This showed whether they would do what they were asked, and do it exactly. • I pushed with a few intentionally contentious comments about obvious resume holes—e.g., I asked directly about not finishing a four-year college degree. I wanted to see how they’d handle it in terms of body language and attitude. Could they shrug it off and stay positive and confident in their reply? • I requested—and analyzed—writing samples.
2. Leverage EO mentors and Chapter Launch experts in the EO leadership.
They brought key experiences, connections, guidance and know-how but, more importantly, they provided good judgment and moral support. Working with them was one of the significant benefits of being in EO. I developed meaningful, trusting relationships, while also avoiding many mistakes, thanks to experience sharing from those who have “been there, done that.”
3. Score SAPs, both big and small.
You can’t run a startup without funds. Strategic alliance partners (SAPs) can provide your chapter with invaluable contributions to make more events and programs possible. You do not need to wait until you have lots of members to score SAPs. Just the opposite: We landed the No. 1 law firm in town with just seven chapter members. Their cash helped significantly, and their high-end facilities provide status and image. But don’t neglect small SAPs, who can help you recruit potential members, provide cash or in-kind contributions, lend credibility and offer free event space.
“Starting EO Richmond was a trial by fire—both incredibly difficult and incredibly rewarding!” – Michael Mahoney, EO Richmond President
4. Create a spectacular learning calendar.
Leverage EO Global events, regional events, and nearby chapter events if you’re in the fortunate position of having another chapter nearby. Schedule quality—but free—speakers for local events, including members from other chapters, local luminaries, or others trying to break into the speakers’ circuit. Paid speakers visiting a nearby chapter will often add your chapter to their trip for a nominal cost, or sometimes just travel expenses.
5. Make events multi-purpose.
A learning event should also be a recruiting event and a spousal integration event, and can be followed by a social event. Squeeze value from every gathering.
6. Run Test Drives every six weeks.
Yes, that’s aggressive, but you have to be relentless. Make the Test Drive location a draw in itself. For example, Top Golf or a local micro-brewery. Invite prospects’ spouses to attend. Again, transform the event into a multi-purpose event, so it’s new member integration, spousal integration, member recruiting, SAP recruiting and a social event.
7. Identify your closer.
I can’t overstate the importance of finding that specific someone in your membership who can close new members and SAPs. It’s a skill. It’s rare. It’s essential. If necessary, leverage a regional leader who will work these contacts by phone for you.
8. Leverage nearby chapters for big, resource-intensive events such as chapter retreats or Accelerator program.
Programs like these require significant time and money, but are occasional and definitely worth the travel. We are fortunate to have two thriving chapters within a two-hour drive of our city—EO DC and EO Southeast Virginia—which empowered us to offer big chapter benefits at little or no expense on our end.
9. Momentum breeds momentum.
You either grow or die. Don’t take your eyes off the prize: Chapter members and prospects feed off the energy of growth. When new members are coming in, there’s excitement, fresh experiences, new connections, and people feel like they’re part of something vibrant. Recruit continually to keep the excitement and enthusiasm revving.
While some EO chapters form as spin-offs of existing chapters, others—such as EO Richmond—start completely from scratch, with a devoted champion cold-recruiting every single new member until they attract 16 qualifying members, the threshold for chapter status.
It’s a daunting challenge, one that EO Richmond president Michael Mahoney started in mid-2017 and mastered in about 20 months, with the help and guidance of EO’s Chapter Launch team and knowledgeable regional resources. The new chapter officially launched in February 2019 and is in integration and growth mode. Michael is also the founder and executive director of Ideal Body Wellness, which provides the tools and guidance necessary for people to achieve and maintain their ideal body weight.

Churchill Club Top 10 Tech Trends Debate
I just got back from the Churchill Club’s 13th Annual Top 10 Tech Trends Debate (site).
Curt Carlson, CEO of SRI, presented their trends from the podium, which are meant to be “provocative, plausible, debatable, and that it will be clear within the next 1-3 years whether or not they will actually become trends.”
Then the panelists debated them. Speaking is Aneesh Chopra, CTO of the U.S., and smirking to his left is Paul Saffo, and then Ajay Senkut from Clarium, then me.
Here are SRI’s 2011 Top 10 Tech Trends [and my votes]:
Trend 1. Age Before Beauty. Technology is designed for—and disproportionately used by—the young. But the young are getting fewer. The big market will be older people. The aging generation has grown up with, and is comfortable with, most technology—but not with today’s latest technology products. Technology product designers will discover the Baby Boomer’s technology comfort zone and will leverage it in the design of new devices. One example today is the Jitterbug cell phone with a large keypad for easy dialing and powerful speakers for clear sound. The trend is for Baby Boomers to dictate the technology products of the future.
[I voted YES, it’s an important and underserved market, but for tech products, they are not the early adopters. The key issue is age-inspired entrepreneurship. How can we get the entrepreneurial mind focused on this important market?]
Trend 2. The Doctor Is In. Some of our political leaders say that we have "the best medical care system in the world". Think what it must be like in the rest of the world! There are many problems, but one is the high cost of delivering expert advice. With the development of practical virtual personal assistants, powered by artificial intelligence and pervasive low-cost sensors, “the doctor will be in”—online—for people around the world. Instead of the current Web paradigm: “fill out this form, and we’ll show you information about what might be ailing you”, this will be true diagnosis—supporting, and in some cases replacing—human medical practitioners. We were sending X-rays to India to be read; now India is connecting to doctors here for diagnosis in India. We see the idea in websites that now offer online videoconference interaction with a doctor. The next step is automation. The trend is toward complete automation: a combination of artificial intelligence, the Internet, and very low-cost medical instrumentation to provide high-quality diagnostics and advice—including answering patient questions—online to a worldwide audience.
[NO. Most doctor check-ups and diagnoses will still need to be conducted in-person (blood tests, physical exams, etc). Sensor technology can’t completely replace human medical practitioners in the near future. Once we have the physical interface (people for now), then the networking and AI capabilities can engage, bringing specialist reactions to locally collected data. The real near-term trend in point-of-care is the adoption of iPads/phones connected to cloud services like ePocrates and Athenahealth and soon EMRs.]
Trend 3. Made for Me. Manufacturing is undergoing a revolution. It is becoming technically and economically possible to create products that are unique to the specific needs of individuals. For example, a cell phone that has only the hardware you need to support the features you want—making it lighter, thinner, more efficient, much cheaper, and easier to use. This level of customization is being made possible by converging technical advances: new 3D printing technology is well documented, and networked micro-robotics is following. 3D printing now includes applications in jewelry, industrial design, and dentistry. While all of us may not be good product designers, we have different needs, and we know what we want. The trend is toward practical, one-off production of physical goods in widely distributed micro-factories: the ultimate customization of products. The trend is toward practical, one-off production of physical goods in widely distributed micro-factories: the ultimate customization of products.
[NO. Personalization is happening just fine at the software level. The UI skins and app code is changeable at zero incremental cost. Code permeates outward into the various vessels we build for it. The iPhone. Soon, the car (e.g. Tesla Sedan). Even the electrical circuits (when using an FPGA). This will extend naturally to biological code, with DNA synthesis costs plummeting (but that will likely stay centralized in BioFabs for the next 3 years. When it comes to building custom physical things, the cost and design challenges relegate it to prototyping, tinkering and hacks. Too many people have a difficult time in 3D content creation. The problem is the 2D interfaces of mouse and screen. Perhaps a multitouch interface to digital clay could help, where the polygons snap to fit after the form is molded by hand.]
Trend 4. Pay Me Now. Information about our personal behavior and characteristics is exploited regularly for commercial purposes, often returning little or no value to us, and sometimes without our knowledge. This knowledge is becoming a key asset and a major competitive advantage for the companies that gather it. Think of your supermarket club card. These knowledge-gatherers will need to get smarter and more aggressive in convincing us to share our information with them and not with their competitors. If TV advertisers could know who the viewers are, the value of the commercials would go up enormously. The trend is technology and business models based on attracting consumers to share large amounts of information exclusively with service providers.
[YES, but it’s nothing new. Amazon makes more on merchandising than product sales margin. And, certain companies are getting better and better at acquiring customer information and personalizing offerings specifically to these customers. RichRelevance provides this for ecommerce (driving 25% of all e-commerce on Black Friday). Across all those vendors, the average lift from personalizing the shopping experience: 15% increase in overall sales and 8% increase in long-term profitability. But, simply being explicit and transparent to the consumer about the source of the data can increase the effectiveness of targeted programs by up to 100% (e.g., saying “Because you bought this product and other consumers who bought it also bought this other product" yielded a 100% increase in product recommendation effectiveness in numerous A/B tests). Social graph is incredibly valuable as a marketing tool.]
Trend 5. Rosie, At Last. We’ve been waiting a long time for robots to live in and run our homes, like Rosie in the Jetsons’ household. It’s happening a little now: robots are finally starting to leave the manufacturing floor and enter people’s homes, offices, and highways. Robots can climb walls, fly, and run. We all know the Roomba for cleaning floors—and now there’s the Verro for your pool. Real-time vision and other sensors, and affordable precise manipulation, are enabling robots to assist in our care, drive our cars, and protect our homes and property. We need to broaden our view of robots and the forms they will take—think of a self-loading robot-compliant dishwasher or a self-protecting house. The trend is robots becoming embedded in our environments, and taking advantage of the cloud, to understand and fulfill our needs.
[NO. Not in 3 years. Wanting it badly does not make it so. But I just love that Google RoboCar. Robots are not leaving the factory floor – that’s where the opportunity for newer robots and even humanoid robots will begin. There is plenty of factory work still to be automated. Rodney Brooks of MIT thinks they can be cheaper than the cheapest outsourced labor. So the robots are coming, to the factory and the roads to start, and then the home.]
Trend 6. Social, Really. The rise of social networks is well documented, but they’re not really social networks. They’re a mix of friends, strangers, organizations, hucksters—it’s more like walking through a rowdy crowd in Times Square at night with a group of friends. There is a growing need for social networks that reflect the fundamental nature of human relationships: known identities, mutual trust, controlled levels of intimacy, and boundaries of shared information. The trend is the rise of true social networks, designed to maintain real, respectful relationships online.
[YES. The ambient intimacy of Facebook is leading to some startling statistics on fB evidence reuse by divorce lawyers (80%) and employment rejections (70%). There are differing approaches to solve this problem: Altly’s alternative networks with partioning and control, Jildy’s better filtering and auto-segmentation, and Path’s 50 friend limit.]
Trend 7. In-Your-Face Augmented Reality. With ever-cheaper computation and advances in computer vision technology, augmented reality is becoming practical, even in mobile devices. We will move beyond expensive telepresence environments and virtual reality games to fully immersive environments—in the office, on the factory floor, in medical care facilities, and in new entertainment venues. I once did an experiment where a person came into a room and sat down at a desk against a large, 3D, high-definition TV display. The projected image showed a room with a similar desk up against the screen. The person would put on 3D glasses, and then a projected person would enter and sit down at the other table. After talking for 5 to 10 minutes, the projected person would stand up and put their hand out. Most of the time, the first person would also stand up and put their hand into the screen—they had quickly adapted and forgotten that the other person was not in the room. Augmented reality will become indistinguishable from reality. The trend is an enchanted world— The trend is hyper-resolution augmented reality and hyper-accurate artificial people and objects that fundamentally enhance people’s experience of the world.
[NO, lenticular screens are too expensive and 3D glasses are a pain in the cortex. Augmented reality with iPhones is great, and pragmatic, but not a top 10 trend IMHO]
Trend 8. Engineering by Biologists. Biologists and engineers are different kinds of people—unless they are working on synthetic biology. We know about genetically engineered foods and creatures, such as gold fish in multiple other colors. Next we’ll have biologically engineered circuits and devices. Evolution has created adaptive processing and system resiliency that is much more advanced than anything we’ve been able to design. We are learning how to tap into that natural expertise, designing devices using the mechanisms of biology. We have already seen simple biological circuits in the laboratory. The trend is practical, engineered artifacts, devices, and computers based on biology rather than just on silicon.
[YES, and NO because it was so badly mangled as a trend. For the next few years, these approaches will be used for fuels and chemicals and materials processing because they lend themselves to a 3D fluid medium. Then 2D self-assembling monolayers. And eventually chips , starting with memory and sensor arrays long before heterogeneous logic. And processes of biology will be an inspiration throughout (evolution, self-assembly, etc.). Having made predictions along these themes for about a decade now, the wording of this one frustrated me]
Trend 9. ‘Tis a Gift to be Simple. Cyber attacks are ever more frequent and effective. Most attacks exploit holes that are inevitable given the complexity of the software products we use every day. Cyber researchers really understand this. To avoid these vulnerabilities, some cyber researchers are beginning to use only simple infrastructure and applications that are throwbacks to the computing world of two decades ago. As simplicity is shown to be an effective approach for avoiding attack, it will become the guiding principle of software design. The trend is cyber defense through widespread adoption of simple, low-feature software for consumers and businesses.
[No. I understand the advantages of being open, and of heterogencity of code (to avoid monoculture collapse), but we have long ago left the domain of simple. Yes, Internet transport protocols won via simplicity. The presentation layer, not so much. If you want dumb pipes, you need smart edges, and smart edges can be hacked. Graham Spencer gave a great talk at SFI: the trend towards transport simplicity (e.g. dumb pipes) and "intelligence in the edges" led to mixing code and data, which in turn led to all kinds of XSS-like attacks. Drive-by downloading (enabled by XSS) is the most popular vehicle for delivering malware these days.]
Trend 10. Reverse Innovation. Mobile communication is proliferating at an astonishing rate in developing countries as price-points drop and wireless infrastructure improves. As developing countries leapfrog the need for physical infrastructure and brokers, using mobile apps to conduct micro-scale business and to improve quality of life, they are innovating new applications. The developing world is quickly becoming the largest market we’ve ever seen—for mobile computing and much more. The trend is for developing countries to turn around the flow of innovation: Silicon Valley will begin to learn more from them about innovative applications than they need to learn from us about the underlying technology.
[YES, globalization is a megatrend still in the making. The mobile markets are clearly China, India and Korea, with app layer innovation increasingly originating there. Not completely of course, but we have a lot to learn from the early-adopter economies.]

Anker, America's Favourite Charging Solutions Brand, Has Big Plans for the Indian Market
Tumblr media
India has been a significant market for smartphone vendors for a long time and with the swift growth of smartphones, the country has also recently been attracting smartphone accessory makers as well as companies offering smart home solutions. Anker Innovations, the entity founded by former Google engineer Steven Yang in July 2011, is one such company that is looking to expand its footprint in the Indian market. The Shenzhen-based company that is renowned in the US already has some presence in the country through online marketplaces like Amazon, Flipkart, and Paytm. Now, the company plans to expand its reach by leveraging the offline channels.
“Our talks are going on with Reliance Digital and Croma in the large-format retail (LFR) space,” Gopal Jeyaraj, Regional Head of Sales, Anker India tells Gadgets 360. “When it comes to the regional LFR, we are in discussions with Poorvika and other big chains such as BigC and Lot. The discussions are almost over and soon we may enter into these large-format retail and organise trade channels. This could happen within this quarter itself.”
Originally dubbed Anker Technology, Anker Innovations has a total of five brands. Anker, which is the most well known brand in the portfolio, offers a host of accessories, including power banks, traditional wall chargers, car chargers, wireless charging models, and even surfaces. Eufy is the second brand by the company that includes connected devices like smart home camera, whereas Zolo, the third brand, is transforming into SoundCore and presently includes a range of wireless audio products.
Then there is Nebula that is into smart, portable entertainment devices and offers compact projectors, and lastly, Roav comes as the fifth brand by Anker Innovations and features smart car accessories. Among these brands, Anker and Eufy so far exist in India to some extent, and there are plans to launch SoundCore as well in the near future.

  As for Nebula and Roav, Jeyaraj tells Gadgets 360 that these two brands will be launched together after the arrival of audio products through the SoundCore brand. The executive also highlighted that the sale strategy for all the products is set to be purely distributor-driven. “When it comes to Anker’s sale strategy for India as a market, it’s purely distributor-driven business,” he said.
Ex-Googler Turns Mom’s Money Into a Billion Dollars
Anker Innovations stepped into the Indian market back in 2015 by partnering with Amazon India. At that time, the company tied up with a third-party seller in Bengaluru to start selling its charging solutions in the country. For a while, the company continued with the same partners, though in 2017 it appointed Jeyaraj, who was previously a business development manager at D-Link India, to start exploring new avenues through offline sales in addition to the original online sales model.
“Exactly in August 2017, we started our offline sales,” Jeyraj says. “This was the time when the first import shipment happened into India for our offline channel. From September onwards, we started appointing sub-distributors and the respective retail channels.”
Presently, ATM Retail is handling online sales, while Anker Innovations has High-Tech Enterprises in Mumbai as its offline channel partner for West and North Indian regions, and 7D Business Solutions for South and East regions. Jeyaraj asserted that despite the limited presence, the company has been quite successful in important cities/ regions, including Bengaluru, Chennai, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Delhi, Kolkata, Patna, and Punjab. He revealed that since August 2017 the company has shipped 120,000 units in the country.
Now, Anker plans to expand the initial reach by hitting the retail shelves in the next set of markets in India, namely Kerala, Pune, Ahmedabad, Pune, and Uttar Pradesh, as well as major North East cities Guwahati.
“We are entering in these cities in the next two months time,” Jeyaraj. “And then, later on, we’ll be focusing on all the other cities through our distribution partners.”
The current line of Anker products that are available in India includes power banks, chargers (wall chargers, desktop chargers, and car chargers), cables (Micro-USB, Lightning, and USB Type-C), audio products (Bluetooth headphones and speakers), and a robotic vacuum cleaner called the Eufy RoboVac 11.
Though its footprint in India is still limited, Anker Innovations has a strong presence in the US and is said to be the biggest third-party seller on Amazon since 2017. In the same year, charging solutions by the company touched the $300 million (approximately Rs. 2,021 crores) mark in terms of revenue. A lot of the recent growth has come thanks to the increased interest in wireless charging solutions, with Jeyaraj revealing that the segment saw a 300 percent increase in sales last year.
All this has ultimately set the pitch for the company to adopt a higher profile in India. “Anker as a brand through the US and Middle East footprints is already known to certain consumers in India, who are pretty much very loyal to us,” says Jeyaraj. “Almost every day we directly used to get consumers request like from where they can buy Anker products from. So we are driving those consumers through our online channels,” he continued.
Anker Launches Headphones, Speakers, and an Affordable AirPods Rival
On why India is as a focus for Anker Innovations, Jeyaraj optimistically pronounces that it is due to the growing demand for good-quality products.
“Most of the people think that India is always looking for cheap products, and customers here don’t bother a good-quality in that product,” he says. “But I actually feel it in a different way because, in India, some market people are ready to spend money but the only point is they need a good-quality product for the money they are spending. That is the space we want to bridge, and we want to target.”
When it comes to the USP of various Anker power banks and other charging products compared to ones available from the mainstream brands like Samsung and Xiaomi, Jeyaraj points out that it is the availability of distinct technologies. “We use four key technologies in our products,” he says, adding, “Out of four, three are our own technologies – developed by us.”
There is PowerIQ, which now comes in the version 2.0, that essentially offers a smart charging experience by identifying the device to give full charging capacity, as per the requirement. The second technology that Anker products include is MultiProtect that is designed to protect the device from low- and high-voltage. There is also the Voltage Boost technology that, as per the official description, compensates for cable resistance by smoothing voltage output.
“These are all the three technologies developed by us when it comes to power banks and wall chargers. We even use our PowerIQ technology in car chargers,” Jeyaraj says. Additionally, certain Anker power banks, car chargers, and wall chargers also include Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0 support to offer fast charging.
Wireless Charging Accessories You Can Use With Any Smartphone
Aside from the four key technologies, Anker Innovations is planning to focus on Power Delivery (PD) that uses USB Type-C connectivity to deliver faster-charging experiences. “We have already made our products with the PD technology. Also, we might be launching soon one of our PD products in power bank and wall charger segments in India,” Jeyaraj reveals.
Tumblr media

  The adoption of newer technologies certainly increases the cost of production for Anker products and thus make them less affordable in comparison to competing offerings available in the market. This also brings lower margins to retailers and consequently emerges as a major challenge for the company that aims to grow further largely through the retail space.
“Certain unbranded accessories from China or any other markets have actually increased the margin expectations of our market,” says Jeyaraj. “That is where we are little bit finding it difficult because how those brands are managing is like increase the MRP and then providing the required margins expected by a retailer, whereas we don’t want to do that.”
“As of now, our strategy is to provide an aggressive or a competitive price point for customers and at the same time, we want to provide the required margin expectations to retailers,” he explains. “We’ll be launching a lot of other products where we’ll be unique. In those products, we’ll be able to keep the right pricing as well as the right margin expectations for our retailers.”
Fulfilling margin expectations for retailers will not just convince them to push Anker products against the competitive offerings, but Jeyaraj also believes that this strategy will also help to limit the circulation of counterfeits.
“Additionally, all our product packages come with a QR code. The retailer and the customer can verify the authenticity of the product with a simple scan – which directs them to the Anker website,” he adds.
Unlike accessory makers such as Mivi and Xiaomi that recently embraced the government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative and have started manufacturing their products locally in the country, Anker Innovations doesn’t have any plans to establish its domestic facilities initially and will continue to import devices from China.
“Our R&D happens from China, and we have several manufacturers for us who take up the manufacturing and assembling processes,” Jeyaraj explains.

That being said, as per the official timeline shared by Jayaraj, Anker Innovations is set to launch its SoundCore audio lineup in India in September, while Eufy EverCam that debuted as a smart wireless security camera on Kickstarter in April is arriving in the Indian market sometime in the fourth quarter – around October. He doesn’t reveal any price details of the new models but he concludes by saying that the company would choose the pricing that will “create a huge impact on the market.”
