Tapping into 100 Plus Years of Entrepreneurial Experience

As a business owner and leader, you are faced with the challenges of owning and operating your business each day. Wouldn't it be great if you could turn to other successful business owners for support and advice, brainstorming YOUR particular problems?

Well on Tuesday night, June 28th you can be part of such a group.

In addition to our usual business networking, Will Rico and Walt Sloan will moderate a "Mastermind" Group - a facilitated, interactive discussion between our meeting attendees designed to help them solve problems in a supportive and collaborative environment.

Each person will be given the opportunity to describe his or her business and discuss a specific issue or challenge that they are currently facing.

Once all of these issues have been identified, the group begins a moderated discussion drawing on the experiences from participants to find strategies and potential solutions to problems.

We have over 100 years of successful business experience sitting around our table. You could pay a lot for that kind of shared experience. Pay a little and get the benefit!
