A Small Business Week Event
Someday Starts Today
You know the plan you keep meaning to start on. The idea you've been "getting to." The thing you've told yourself you'll tackle someday.
Alan's message — and one of the songs you'll hear him play live — comes down to the same idea: someday isn't a date on the calendar. It's a decision you make today.
Small Business Week is a good excuse to make it.
Why take business advice from a rock star?
Because building a career in music and building a business come down to the exact same thing: you can plan forever, or you can actually do the work.
Alan Frew didn't get to the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, co-write an Olympic theme song, and turn Glass Tiger into one of Canada's most successful bands by having the best plan. He got there by showing up — night after night, city after city — long before anyone was watching. That's the whole lesson behind his book,
The Action Sandwich: A Six Step Recipe to Success.
Showing up with his comedic Gordon Ramsay meets Deepak Chopra style, Alan brings the keynote to life with humour, experience, and a live set featuring music you're sure to recognize — think "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)" and "Someday."
Part talk. Part concert. Zero fluff.
A live, 90-minute keynote + acoustic set from one of Canada's favourite entertainers that's fully virtual — join from your desk, your kitchen table, wherever. And yes, a recording available, in case life happens and you can't make it live.

About Alan
A voice that defined a generation.
Alan Frew is best known as the lead singer of Glass Tiger, the iconic Canadian band whose hits — including Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone) and Someday — became the soundtrack of a generation. With a career spanning four decades, Alan has sold millions of records, toured the world, and earned a place in the hearts of fans everywhere.
But his story doesn't end with the music. Alongside fronting Glass Tiger, Alan's helping entrepreneurs break through their own glass ceilings — the ones built less by the market than by self-doubt. He's the national bestselling author of The Action Sandwich: A Six-Step Recipe to Success, and the whole book comes down to one idea: the plan was never the missing piece — the doing was.

About Hello Chamber
This event was created by Hello Chamber, a Canadian consulting business built for Chamber of Commerce leaders. This keynote first found its home as part of Chamber Day Live, a Small Business Week event for the chamber industry — however, great taste in music (and a readiness to be inspired) shouldn't require a membership card. So we opened the door wide!
Will you join us?
If you're an entrepreneur or small business owner who isn't yet connected to a Chamber of Commerce, consider this your nudge: find your nearest chamber and join. It's one of the simplest ways to get support, community, and opportunities like this one — without having to build it all yourself.
