Rebecca Scott is a self-motivated individual with enthusiastic energy, vision and strong interpersonal networking skills. Her company, EVENTMASTERS USA has served in tradeshow/event production and management for over 23 years. Originally a sales, marketing and image consulting company, its backbone business was in logistics. Today, this independent company has expanded business to include network think tanks, entertainment representation and talent booking.
Rebecca has always dreamed of an opportunity to create, manage and develop an event around her own passion –but which passion? After her daughter was born she found it – the need to rebuild, reunite and help families come together supported by strong community. Fulfilling her dream, Rebecca is the driving force behind Begins with Family Expo.

“There are many wonderful, small business owners and professionals with excellent products and services,” states Rebecca. “I realized that many owners don’t have time to run a business, get more clients and customers, and also meet their own next door neighbors at work or home. I wanted them to all meet, greet and find ways to connect to one another. I thought about how business owners could develop clients and customer leads through helpful referral programs. I wanted to show my clients how to ‘work smarter, not harder’ by extending the hand of friendship and neighborliness.”
It’s our goal, through Begins with Family Expo, to introduce individuals and companies who can generate ideas for lead development by matching businesses and customers who complement one another. Rather than a competitive, “keep it to myself” approach, an event that encourages helpful, community-building interaction will serve as a celebration while nurturing business and providing needed products and services for participants and attendees. And we seek to recommend and endorse the highest quality products and service providers, those who are the best in their fields of interest.
Here is an example: While visiting a kids’ entertainment venue (Pump it Up), you’ll also be referred to a kids’ party entertainer (Mystic Joe), a local toy store (Totally Thomas Toy Depot) and family service providers to help ensure the health of kids (Youngevity) and parents (Dr. Brian Smith, DC). Of course there are many varied areas and clusters of interest, and there is something for everyone at our familyoriented event.
“The main point,” emphasizes Rebecca, “is that if we all work collaboratively, everyone stands to gain more.”

We’ve lost many basic kids’ programs including visual arts, music, dance and theater, along with sports and physical education as part of our standard school curricula. Participation in these activities is essential to building character, as well as mental and physical development. Independent organizations are stepping up to fill that void. These source providers will benefit by having another way to get the word out about their important programs. This is a way to help everyone learn about and enjoy these activities.
Rebecca goes on to say, “We like to think of ‘family’ as a place where individuals come together in support of each other. While working with Cuba Gooding, Sr., he introduced me to his hit song that talks about the value of family. I realized it was the basis for a great name of an event where various members of the community come together like family, in support of one another.”
We hope you will join us and contribute to the success of this tremendous opportunity. By agreeing to support this event your organization can be highly visible throughout the coming year, and for the duration of the event.
The Expo provides parents a place to shop for the best products and services at special deals for their families while spending quality time with their children.
