6/25 Recap

Hello B2B Members and Guests. It was great to see you all at the meeting on Wednesday. Such a nice big group that some of us got "scouched" over to a table at the side! Sorry about that Cheryl-Ann, Sarah and Brent.

We had a quick go around the table to allow everyone the opportunity to tell what new and exciting things they and their place of business are offering this early summer. We got to hear a little from our guest Brent Runge representing Access Telcom. He is fairly new to Access Telcom but has worked in the field of telecommunication for over 8 years. I personally know that Access Telcom has some fabulous products as I tested -- and our office purchased -- a fancy little headset that works remotely from our phones and it has been very beneficial for ME! I just love it. So...we would like to welcome you to our group Brent. We hope you enjoyed your visit with us and will be lunching with us every 2 weeks as a member.

Gina, back from her exciting trip to Africa looking happy and ready to make all of our homes and businesses more beautiful! She gave us an excellent presentation (with a stage and everything!) showing us unique carpets, luscious glass tiles, and new eco-friendly countertops that she is able to offer to her clients for updating their homes and offices. Gina takes the time to go the clients homes to find out exactly what it is they are hoping to accomplish. She then puts together a package to accomplish the tasks set forth and then gets the necessary contractors to complete the job. She has all the contact with the contractors and reports to the client. It sounds heavenly! No job is too small she states and she offers the first hour consult for free, after that it is $75/hour.

I know that we will all tell our buddies and family members about Gina and her wonderful shop.

And speaking of leads...GRANT IS THE BIG WINNER FOR LEADS GENERATED! He had a whopping total of 17 and so will walk out of the next meeting with quite a bit of cash. I do not have the money count but I am sure that Dean who is in charge of the big bucks will hand it over to Grant on July 9th during our next meeting. CONGRATS GRANT AND A BIG THANK YOU FOR LETTING OTHERS KNOW ABOUT ALL THE GREAT B2B MEMBERS! Cindy Guthrie and myself we tied as the runners up with 10 apiece. Pretty darn good if I say so myself!
