"The Mattress Queen" Sunny Kobe Cook is an American success story! Sunny founded Sleep Country USA with only $5,000 in 1991, serving as CEO and company spokesperson for many years. This successful entrepreneur started her business with only $5,000, grew it to over $50 million in annual sales with 28 locations and sold it, retiring at age 42! She has gone on to be a celebrated author, motivational speaker and consultant.

Selling her retail store chain gave Sunny the opportunity to realize a lifelong dream. In her book, "Common Things, Uncommon Ways", she shares proven ways to improve any business through increased focus on the Customer Experience, Employee Recognition and Motivation.

Join us for an intimate and unique conversation with Sunny as she provides practical, no nonsense lessons for success that are applicable to every type of business.
