This is an early morning speed networking event that allows Chamber members to deliver a strategic 2-minute promotional pitch to all participants. It’s fast, it’s fun and, most importantly, it produces results. Plenty of coffee will be provided as well as a “to go” breakfast treat.
The workshop is provided to 20 guests and is complimentary, thanks to our sponsor, Timely Signs.
