REGISTER NOW! BACK TO MAIN EVENT PAGE JONNY FOWLER KEYNOTE SPEAKER Jonny Fowler is a business and marketing strategist, speaker, author, and educator with more than three decades of experience helping professionals grow their businesses through relationship-driven marketing, social media strategy, and practical business systems. With deep roots in the mortgage and real estate industries, Jonny has traveled across the country teaching business owners, real estate professionals, entrepreneurs, and sales teams how to use modern marketing tools to increase visibility, strengthen their brand, and generate more opportunities. His teaching style is known for being practical, direct, and action-focused, giving audiences clear steps they can implement immediately. Jonny is also a two-time Amazon best-selling author and the founder of Jonathan Fowler Media LLC, where he provides training, coaching, and digital marketing education focused on social media, branding, automation, AI-driven marketing, and organic business growth.

His mission is to help people grow with confidence by combining timeless relationship-building principles with today’s digital tools. QUINTON ARMSTRONG Quinton Armstrong is a serial entrepreneur, property investor, and mission-driven business builder whose portfolio spans two distinct but deeply connected ventures. As co-founder of Ashe Magnolia Group, LLC, he leads the acquisition, remodeling, and flipping side of a real estate operation that is redefining what it means to invest in property with intention — turning undervalued assets into transformed spaces that serve buyers, communities, and the bottom line. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in communication studies from California State University, Northridge and a Master’s degree in Public Administration from Penn State University. His approach to real estate is informed by a second business he built from the ground up: SKY5 Cleaning Systems, Inc., a Colorado Springs-based commercial cleaning and facility services company he founded in 2016 alongside a team of entrepreneurs from varied backgrounds who identified a gap in the industry and moved to fill it. Under Quinton's leadership as President and CEO, SKY5 has grown into a respected provider of commercial cleaning, floor care, and remediation services for some of the most demanding environments in the country — including healthcare facilities, government offices, and private defense clients. The discipline required to maintain contracts with healthcare and government clients demands precision, reliability, and systems-level thinking. Those same qualities define how Quinton approaches property investment: with rigor in acquisition, thoroughness in renovation, and a commitment to the finished product that goes beyond aesthetics to structural and functional integrity. Post-construction cleaning — a core SKY5 service — sits at the natural intersection of both businesses, making Quinton and his team uniquely equipped to manage properties end-toend.

Steven is the leader of the Young Professionals Colorado group for eXp, serves on various committees to bring education to colleagues and has spoken at industry events in New Orleans, Las Vegas, Denver, Nashville and Charlotte. Real Estate is something that he wholeheartedly believes should be a fun and stress free process, because let's be honest, most of us aren't buying and selling houses every day. It is a milestone and part of the proverbial "American Dream." For the majority of people the process becomes overwhelming, stressful, and creates more headaches than it should because they do not understand the process, what to expect, or are working with an agent who is not educated properly. Our role and our goal is to prepare our clients for each step that is coming, help them navigate through any challenges and be their advocate for selling or buying a property. By doing this, we help our clients realize that buying or selling real estate should be something to look forward to and not something to dread or just something you have to get through. And if you find us to be the right fit for you, excellent! When we work together, we want to make sure your journey on this path is memorable for the right reasons.

BACK TO TOP Event Sponsors Our event includes sponsors who provide products and services to help your business grow and thrive! Make sure to take time to visit their tables and learn how they can help you. From material samples to full-scale floor plan consultations, we make it easy to bring your vision to life. Whether you're an interior designer or a homeowner, our team partners with you every step of the way. One-on-one design consultations CAD floor plan layout and scaled placement Material samples for approval Wide range of finish and size options In-house manufacturing for unmatched quality We started out like many of you—running a design firm, juggling countless projects, and chasing slim margins. As we scaled, we noticed something surprising: the part of the business that kept our doors open wasn’t our design services—it was furniture sales. That realization changed everything. We decided to rethink the way interior designers source and sell furniture. What if we could simplify it? What if we could make it more profitable? What if we could create a platform that frees designers to focus on their craft instead of chasing vendors and managing endless logistics? That’s exactly what Daniel House Club is today. We’ve streamlined the process of acquiring and reselling furniture so you can spend less time on admin and more time doing what you do best. Whether you’re working on a single room or a full-scale project, our tools and resources are designed to make your business not only run smoother—but thrive. We’re here to make your work easier, your profits stronger, and your clients happier. Welcome to Daniel House Club We teach a four-pillar approach to creating wealth and maintaining legacy. In the same sense that you wouldn’t build a house on a crumbled, cracked foundation, you shouldn’t aspire to start building (and maintaining) financial wealth without paying attention to the following four pillars. For business owners, we show you how to fund your business growth through an investment strategy that also allows you to legally avoid capital gains tax, protect your assets, reduce your risk of litigation, avoid probate entirely, keep more money within your estate – and more!

The companies mission is to power the future of work by connecting qualified workers to opportunities in the labor market. Laborjack is built around outcomes, not just coverage. Instead of sending whoever is available, workers are matched based on reliability and past performance. Attendance and performance matter. The goal is consistency, not just filling a shift. That approach changes what event day feels like. A 98% fill rate means our crews show up ready to work. Expectations are clear before the shift begins. Supervisors are not stuck babysitting. The event stays on track. Reliable staffing is not flashy. It is steady. It means people arrive on time, do the job well, and support your team without adding chaos. For event planners, venues, and production teams who care about long-term success, the staffing model matters. When labor works the way it should, it becomes one less thing to worry about. And that is what reliable event staffing should look like. Who is our NEXT SPONSOR? See YOUR company in this spot Who is our NEXT SPONSOR? See YOUR company in this spot!
