Business Expo in Southland set for Feb. 18th

By Tia Carol Jones
Dr. James Dentley’s entire life has been about helping people grow and scale their businesses. He has been speaking, training and coaching those in business and those who are interested in starting a business for more than 25 years.

Dentley is bringing his expertise and the expertise of other entrepreneurs to Matteson.

The It’s Time to Win Southland Business Expo will take place from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Feb. 17th and 18th, at the Holiday Inn, 500 Holiday Plaza Drive, in Matteson, Ill. The expo is presented by Chamber 57 and JD3 MEDIA. The event will enable attendees to build relationships with other entrepreneurs.

Dentley, the  founder of Inspired 2 Speak, will speak about helping people find their voice to tell their story, as well as to understand the psychology of communication. Bill Walsh will talk about how to start a business and build a business and the tools to structure and grow a business. David Ibarra and local business owners will also speak during the event.

“They’re coming in to tell their story, to teach and to tell how they’ve done what they’ve done,” Dentley said.

Dentley founded JD3 TV two years ago, because he saw a need for positive, empowering, entertaining content. Shows on the platform include “It’s Time to Win,” “Around the World with Michael D,” and “High Performing Professionals.” JD3TV is available at www.jd3tv.com, Roku, Amazon Prime or Apple.

Dentley said he wanted to bring the event to Matteson because he had a training office in the building connected to the hotel in 2017. He started an Entrepreneurs Forum, which he hosted there on Wednesdays.

“I’ve always had a hand in building businesses, that’s what I do, I help people grow, sell and scale businesses,” he said. “I wanted to bring it back to Matteson because there’s such a need right now in that community for people who have a dream and a vision and a talent to learn how to flourish and to think bigger, because I think it all starts there.”

For Dentley it all begins with relationships. He believes it starts with a handshake, holding on to the handshake and holding tight to the hugs. He wants to help people learn how to build relationships that people can grow and share together. He also wants to share what it really takes to have success, what people have to do mentally and emotionally to achieve success. “Everyone wants to have success in their life until they really find out what it takes. How do you position yourself for success? How do you manage your time?,” he said.

Attendees will learn everything from how to give back to a community and the reasons for giving back to the community. Dentley believes that one person’s success can be someone else’s miracle. He wants attendees to liberate their ideas and operate in harmony to manifest the things they want in their life, as well as how they can make an immediate impact on their community, their business and their families.
