Today, who wants to start?

Are you trying to reach people who want to start a new business? Recent survey says that's 70+% of today's high school seniors. If so, we should talk when you have a minute.

This is what I'm sending to some of the people who "Like" our SBCC Facebook Page:

"Thanks for the Like, now I hope you'll Join! :-) Go back to the Page you Liked www.Facebook.com/Small.Business.Chamber, then 'Visit Group' and join. If you have any questions give me a call, ok? John (303)861-1447"

I look forward to talking with you.
