Why Join — C-SUITE NETWORK™

For operators who own the P&L

Most networks hand you a directory. Ours hands you the introduction.

There are calls only you can make, and nobody on your payroll to make them to. Every week, an intimate room of CEOs, founders, and operators meets online. Every month, they meet in person in New York, Dallas, Phoenix, and Fort Worth. The rooms are hosted by Jeffrey Hayzlett, the turnaround CMO at Kodak who has bought and sold more than 250 companies, and Tricia Benn, former global CMO of a $3B holding company — so the introductions happen inside the room, not in a directory you're left to search alone.

$100 a month. Come when you can, skip when you can't. The room runs either way.

Rooms every week, online  ·  Receptions monthly in New York, Dallas, Phoenix & Fort Worth  ·  No annual lock-in


Your team can't answer the calls only you can make. Your spouse doesn't want the play-by-play. The advisor you pay $400 an hour gives you the safe answer.

The answer isn't on your payroll. It's with the operators who've already been where you're going. Why leaders join

The part every other network leaves vague

How the introduction actually happens.

Everyone promises connections and then hands you a search bar. Here is our entire mechanism, in three steps. There is nothing else to it.

  1. 01

    You answer one question.

    Not an application. One line when you join: what are you working on right now? Ten seconds, one sentence. That sentence is what Jeffrey and Tricia read before they put you in front of anyone, and it is the difference between an introduction that lands and a name you never follow up with.

  2. 02

    Onboarding is your first room.

    Not a welcome email, and not a call with a rep. A live session with our concierge team and whoever else joined that week — some weeks that's a room, some weeks it's just you. They learn what you do, who you're trying to reach, and what would actually be useful. The introductions start on that call. You're connected before your first room.

  3. 03

    Then the introductions happen four ways.

    • In the weekly rooms. Online, hosted, and small enough to actually talk. You're not scrolling a list of names — you're in the session, and you leave knowing several of them. This is where most of it happens.
    • At the monthly receptions. New York, Dallas, Phoenix, Fort Worth. Every one opens with a working session on a problem operators are actually stuck on — so by the time the drinks start, you've already argued with half the room about something real. Plus the retreats and partner events across the year.
    • From the concierge team. They know what you're working on, and who else is working on something next to it. That's the whole reason we ask.
    • From Jeffrey and Tricia personally. The ones where a name needs weight behind it.

    Every day we hear from members who ended up doing business with someone they met here.

No curriculum. No homework. No chapter volunteer, no algorithm, no list of names left on your desk to go work through alone. The room does the connecting. Our job is to make sure the right people are in it and that you don't have to introduce yourself.


For anyone looking for the catch

The $100 room is the whole product.

Nothing else is required.

We have councils. You will never need one to get what you came for. The $100 room isn't a sample or a stepping stone — it's complete on its own, and nobody pitches the room from inside it.

The price isn't the bar.

$100 is what the chair costs. It has nothing to do with who's sitting in it. The bar gets set in the room, every week, by the people hosting it — in person, which is harder to fake than a form.

It survives a bad quarter.

Most memberships are priced so you have to justify them. Then you feel guilty. Then you cancel. Come to four rooms this month or none. The rooms run either way, and they're there the week you actually need them.


Who you get access to

Built by Practitioners, Not Pundits.

Most networks put their founders on an About page. Ours run the room. Jeffrey and Tricia host every weekly event and every monthly reception themselves. Between them: a Fortune 100 CMO seat and a turnaround, a $3B holding company, a primetime Bloomberg show, and 250+ companies bought and sold. You're not buying access to them. You're buying a room that two people with those résumés bother to run in person, every week — which is why the people in it are worth showing up for.

Every link on their cards below runs on our own platform. Their sites are built on the same C-Suite Marketing Cloud you get when you join. Their podcasts and articles sit on our media platform, which is a separate contributor service rather than part of the $100.

Jeffrey Hayzlett
Chairman & Founder

Jeffrey Hayzlett

The turnaround CMO at Kodak · 250+ companies bought and sold

He took the CMO seat at Kodak when the company was in freefall and ran the turnaround. Since then he has bought and sold more than 250 businesses, built this Network from nothing, hosted primetime on Bloomberg, and sat across from thousands of the people who run things. Thirty years of that is why, when Jeffrey says two people ought to know each other, both of them take the call.

Tricia Benn
Chief Executive Officer

Tricia Benn

Former Global CMO, MDC Partners ($3B Holding Co)

She ran global marketing for MDC Partners, a $3B holding company, and has spent twenty years turning introductions into partnerships that outlast the deal that started them. She hosts the weekly rooms and the C-Suite Success interviews herself. Being in the room every week is why she knows who's in it, what they're carrying, and who they ought to be talking to.

Mission & Vision

Why we exist, and where we're going.

Our mission

To be the most trusted network in the C-Suite. We put senior leaders in front of each other on purpose, then give them the platform and the tools to turn those relationships into business.

Our vision

That every senior leader has the network, the visibility, and the tools they would otherwise spend a decade assembling one relationship at a time.

Four things come out of this room: people who have already done what you're about to do, straight answers when you're stuck, an audience for your thinking, and business that lands on your P&L. Internally we file them under four C's. What matters is what they do for you.


Everything no one helps a solo executive with.

Four C's, one platform — because a senior leader shouldn't have to assemble this themselves, one vendor at a time.

Community

Weekly virtual events you join from anywhere, hosted by Jeffrey and Tricia themselves, with senior leaders only and the room kept small enough that nobody hides in it. Monthly receptions in New York, Dallas, Phoenix, and now Fort Worth. 400+ events a year, and you pick the ones worth your time.

NetworkingReceptionsIntroductions
Content

The media platform behind the Network: C-Suite TV, filmed at the New York Stock Exchange, and our 400+ show podcast network with 100M+ downloads. It exists to put your name and your thinking in front of the market.

EventsPodcastTV
Counsel

Answers from operators who have already been where you are: funding, marketing, hiring, scaling, even publishing a book. Counsel from people who've sat in your seat, not consultants who bill for it, and who answer because that's the deal here.

ExpertsPeer answersProfessional Services
Commerce

Business follows the relationship, not the pitch. Individual and group referrals from leaders who know your work, and a marketplace built for the C-Suite. Nobody sells in the room — which is exactly why what starts in it tends to show up on the P&L.

Everything a business runs on. In your name, not your company's.

The system your business runs on was built for the business — its leads, its pipeline, its customers. Your own network, your own name, the relationships you've spent a career building: those live in your head, your phone, and a drawer full of cards. The C-Suite Marketing Cloud™ is the one that's in your name, and it stays that way whatever you're running next.

You have already seen it running. hayzlett.com and triciabenn.com are built on this exact stack — same CRM, same funnels, same landing pages you get on day one. If you'd rather not build it yourself, there's a team here who will do it for you.

Your CRM, your email tool, your scheduler, your funnel builder, your landing pages. Five subscriptions, one login, one platform that stays yours.

If you started a company tomorrow, this is the only software you would need to go to market and run sales. It is in your name from the day you join — and still in your name the day you leave.

A community of values-based leaders

Why the room stays worth being in.

Reach, Reciprocity, Respect, and Relevancy aren't a poster on the wall. They're the price of admission, and the reason the room stays worth being in.

Reach

The market hears about you from us, not only from you. The Network, the weekly rooms, 400+ events a year, and a media platform that was already running before you got here.

Reciprocity

Everyone gives before they get. The room rewards mutual benefit and real generosity, not self-promotion or a pitch in disguise.

Respect

Character is the bar, not the title. What's said in the room stays in the room. And the people who treat it as a hunting ground, or treat anyone in it as beneath them, don't last here — Jeffrey and Tricia are in every session, and they notice.

Relevancy

Nobody here does exactly what you do, which is the entire point. The CFO who has closed three earn-outs. The founder who survived last year what you're walking into this year. The operator who solved your problem in a different industry and never thought to write it down. Between them there isn't much left that hasn't already been figured out by somebody close enough to ask.

What it sounds like from the inside.

From Executive Leaders who had no particular reason to say it.

Real growth, real results, without going at it alone.

"C-Suite is where egos stay out and growth comes in. I've gained more from true peer collaboration here than anywhere else — it's an investment that keeps paying in growth and confidence."
Claudia Harvey
Claudia HarveyPresident & Co-Founder, BG Wealth Group

I thought I was alone, until I found this community.

"Before C-Suite, I was building in isolation. Now I'm surrounded by executives who push me forward, share real solutions, and make sure I'm never figuring it out alone."
Dan E. Silberberg
Dan E. SilberbergFounder & CEO, Entelechy

This community transformed the way I do business.

"From day one, I knew this community was different. The connections, the energy — it transformed the way I do business and opened doors I never thought possible."
Ray Kober
Ray KoberPresident & CEO, Benefitxa Inc.

I found more clarity in weeks than I found in years.

"C-Suite gave me strategies, takeaways, and connections that accelerated both my business and leadership. The clarity I've gained here is unmatched."

Here's what actually happens.

There are 400+ events a year, and you will never attend most of them. That's the point. You don't manage this calendar — you drop into the rooms worth your time, and the rhythm runs whether you make it or not.

Every
week

The rooms, online

Friday Celebrates and Scotch Sunday for executive networking, C-Suite Success interviews with Tricia Benn, and workshops on what you're facing right now. Senior operators only, in a room small enough that you leave knowing people. Join from anywhere.

Every
month

A working session, then the reception

New York, Dallas, Phoenix, and now Fort Worth. Free once you're in — you never buy a ticket again. Dates differ by city; pick yours below.

Every reception starts with a boardroom session. Same night, same room, before the drinks. One topic, picked because operators are actually stuck on it, worked all the way through to what you'd do about it Monday. Any Executive Leader can take a seat — first 50 to RSVP, no extra ticket. Substance first. Networking after.

All
year

Retreats and partner events

You're invited to every C-SUITE NETWORK™ retreat and to partner events across the US. Retreats carry a separate ticket, because they're multi-day and off-site. The invitation is part of your membership.

For what's
next

The network you take with you

Whatever your business card says now, one day it says something else. Companies get sold, boards change their minds, and the system your business runs on belongs to the business — the contacts, the lists, the funnels stay with it, and the next thing starts from a cold inbox. The C-Suite Marketing Cloud™ is yours: the same stack Jeffrey and Tricia run their own businesses on, and it leaves when you do.

Jeffrey and Tricia host every one of them.

Growth operators, not transactional networkers.

This is for you if…

  • You're a VP or C-level operator running a $5M+ business
  • You want peer feedback from people who've actually done it
  • You value real relationships over another swap-card session
  • You'd rather be introduced than have to cold-call

It's probably not for you if…

  • You're here to work the room, not to be in it
  • You're collecting business cards, not relationships
  • You want to pitch the room instead of help it
  • You're looking for a free lead list
  • You're not ready to show up and contribute

Twelve people know your business cold. Nobody else knows your name.

A peer-advisory group buys you depth: a dozen people who know your business cold, twelve days a year, for about $20K. Keep it. What it can't buy is reach — and reach is the entire point of this.

A dozen people who know your business cold, twelve days a year, with a trained chair. Worth every dollar. It won't make anyone outside that room know your name.

Deep peer access, a facilitator who knows the room, and accountability that sticks. Worth it for what it is. But the reach stops at the edge of the cohort — one group, one vertical, one room.

The Monument Retreat

Outlaw Ranch · Custer, South Dakota

Most executive events are built around comfort. This one is built around perspective. Four days at a camp in the Black Hills, led by Jeffrey and Tricia: structured leadership sessions, shared meals, trails, fire pits, and whole-group excursions to Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse Memorial. Trade the boardroom for open sky and the conversations that only happen once the noise gets quiet.

Questions, answered.

Is there an application or waitlist?
No form, and no waitlist. We ask three questions at signup — your title, your company size, and what you're working on right now — and that last one isn't a filter, it's what your first introduction gets built from. The vetting isn't a document, it's Jeffrey and Tricia. They host every room, they see who shows up and how they behave, and they invite senior operators directly. A form can be gamed by anyone with a keyboard. Being in the room with the founders every week can't.
What exactly do I get for $100/month?
Your account, your CRM, every weekly virtual room, and every monthly city reception — including the boardroom working session that runs before each one. All hosted by Jeffrey and Tricia, all free once you're in. You're also invited to the retreats, though those carry a separate ticket ($1,200–$3,000) because they're multi-day and off-site. Our councils are separate as well — and nothing else is required. The $100 room is complete on its own.
Do I have to live in a gateway city?
No. The weekly events run online, so you're in the room from wherever you are. The monthly receptions are in New York, Dallas, Phoenix, and now Fort Worth if you want the in-person side, but plenty of executive leaders get their value entirely from the weekly rooms.
What's the difference between the Network and a council?
Your $100/mo account is the Network: every weekly room, every monthly reception and the boardroom session that opens it, an invitation to every retreat, and your CRM. Councils are the separate thing — smaller, ongoing groups you apply to or are nominated for. They aren't part of the $100 account, and they aren't where you need to start. (Two words worth keeping straight: a boardroom is an event, and it's included. A council is a group, and it isn't.)
Is there a member directory?
There is, and it's the least interesting thing you get. Every network has one, and a directory has never once introduced anybody to anybody. It's there when you want to look someone up after you've met them. The room is what you're actually joining.
What are the rules of the room?
Three, and they're short. What's said in the room stays in the room. Nothing is recorded or shared. Nobody sells to the room. Jeffrey and Tricia host every session and enforce all three themselves, which is the whole reason people say the thing they came to say.
What happens between the events?
Nothing you have to keep up with, and that's deliberate. No forum to check, no streak to maintain, no homework. Introductions still get made in between — by the concierge team, and by Jeffrey and Tricia. Everything else happens in the rooms.
What if I'm too busy to actually show up?
Then don't. Nobody here is tracking your attendance, and there is no streak to keep. Come to four rooms this month or none. Skip a quarter while you close the raise. The rooms run whether you make them or not, and they're there the week you actually need them — which is the week you'll be glad you never cancelled. At $100 a month, month to month, it doesn't need to be justified to anyone, including you.
Can I come to something before I pay?
Yes. The monthly city receptions in New York, Dallas, Phoenix, and Fort Worth are open to non-members as our guest — go see the room before you decide anything. Pick your city above. Once you join, they're free and you never buy a ticket again.
Can I cancel?
Yes. There's no annual lock-in. You stay because it's working, not because a contract says you have to.

The room you've been missing is one click away.

Join the executive leaders who stopped figuring it out alone. Every room, every reception, and your own CRM, the moment you join.
