After a thirty-year career in retail selling everything from socks to stocks, with only a computer and a plan, Bobbi Govanus launched her own small business within the computer training industry. She grew that business from the basement of her Minnesota home by listening closely to her customers and providing customized computer training and solutions. The company eventually brokered over one thousand high-caliber computer trainers across the United States and Canada, even serving clients as far away as England, Japan, Germany, and India. She grew the company to sales of over 5 million annually.
In celebration of these and other accomplishments, Entrepreneur Magazine recognized Bobbi Govanus as their "Home-based" Business Owner of the Year. Minnesota honored her as their Women in Business Advocate.
In 2014, Bobbi created the Reinvention Retreat (www.RetreatAtSea.com), which annually brings facilitators together to coach and assist attendees who want to make the rest of their lives the best of their lives. She is an Amazon Best-Selling Author of five books and released her sixth and newest Anthology, Reinvent Your Spirit, in January 2024.
Volunteering her skills as a Master Event Planner, she coordinates details for everything from Galas to Golf Tournaments! She has aided the New Image Youth Center, United Way, Rotary, the Scholarship and Endowment Fund of the Women’s Executive Council, and others; her passion for non-profits is felt throughout Central Florida. As a Commissioned Lay Minister, she is active in her church family, recently launching a Stephen Ministry Program as a Leader and Trainer.
Bobbi lives with her husband, Gary, in Haines City, FL. She can be reached at Bobbi@Govanus.com.
