The Business Success Forum provides business leaders with access to innovators in our community sharing information to enrich their profession and their life.

Quarterly training workshops offer a variety of unique learning opportunities covering such topics as leadership skills training, financial training, marketing/sales training, team building, or business legal issues. Members may suggest or request other topics.

By attending the workshop you are automatically granted a free membership. Our guest speakers offer discounts and special offers to our members. We encourage further interaction between our honored guest speakers and members beyond the planned workshops.

This event will allow both businesses and the public to interact and make more connections, promote their businesses and meet new people  that they may have never met before. It is not a Referral event nor hosted by any other referral groups, it is hosted solely by Myself independently.

My ultimate mission is to bring both consumers and businesses together in one place which will allow them to Connect, Meet and Promote!

I think that this event will do just that and am very confident that it could be a resource to the area. It is 100% free to attend. 

You can get more information about Connect Tri-Cities or RSVP at www.connecttricities.com or feel free to look it up on Facebook atwww.facebook.com/connecttricities .

Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to Meeting You on November 12.
