Unleash Big Ideas and Bring Them to Life
The Bloom Lab is an interactive problem-solving and ideation workshop that helps your organization address a business challenge or growth opportunity.
Look beyond the narrow lens of your industry to discover your next big idea.
Bloom Lab helps your organization think bigger and generate robust solutions that positively impact your mission and bottom line. It’s the difference between iterating and innovating.
Through unique tools, I will challenge participants to break free from traditional thinking and explore new approaches. Inspired by visionaries like Walt Disney, the methodology cultivates an environment where expansive thinking thrives.
Attendees leave equipped with a toolbox for brainstorming that encourages diverse perspectives and unleashes your organization’s most innovative solutions.
And together, we uncover and implement bold ideas for your brand to gain greater authority, impact, and growth.
Bloom Lab: Ignite innovation, shatter norms, and drive world-changing impact.

“Gina’s ability to unlock creative solutions for stale marketing challenges is second to none. If your team is stuck or feeling like the creative juices are running low, Bloomtopia is the agency to turn to. We’ve also used Gina for retreats and team training focused on innovation. Her process and style are exactly what you need when you have a tough time defining a specific problem and/or have lost sight of how to think in a new and different way around the same topic.”
When you break the rules and innovate, you create powerful solutions that:
01
Expand your brand awareness and generate buzz
02
Attract the right customers or clients
03
Increase your revenue, market share, and your bottom line.

“Gina is fabulous to work with. I have known Gina for nearly 10 years, and she has always provided top-notch service to our firm. She and her team helped us grow our business by creating innovative strategies and then following up with the execution. Whenever we have a meeting with Gina, we always walk away with a great idea. She recently led innovative brainstorming sessions with our respective teams and did a great job running the show. In addition to being creative, she is also skilled at running an effective and engaging meeting and getting the best out of everyone in the room. Gina is also a very nice person and cares about people, which is really what matters most.”

Successful participants are passionate about the organization, creative, and knowledgeable about the subject matter. We also recommend “resistors,” who rarely approve of any ideas, and “naive experts,” who might bring a new perspective.
