I recently had the opportunity to write an articel for a national trade magazine - PIZZA TODAY.  I thought I’d share it with all of you, since many of you had a part in making this idea a success & briunging it into the national spotlight

this is a wonderful way to keep each of us infomed with what is new in the area.    Glad to be on board!! 

I am hoping sometime within the next two weeks, conservatively, to start getting a few folks from area businesses posting on here.  So, maybe in March we can get this bad boy firing.

Just thought I’d update folks.  And now you have been updated.  Aren’t I just swell?

This website is the beginning of a push to revive efforts that started with the Chamber’s Retailers Group. The Retailers Group was setup to encourage area business to share ideas and participate in joint marketing efforts. Interest in the group dwindled over the last year and the group was disbanded in February 2008.

The near term goal is to build upon an idea Renee Porada offered up to the group’s mailing list. Folks can post their specials, announcements and events on here.

In addition, this effort should expand to include broader efforts and a broader base. Particularly, I’d like to see this website become a repository of knowledge so new businesses can search the site and find information that might otherwise require months to find.

Anone who has gotten business off the ground knows how much we’re shooting in the dark those early days. If we can shine some light for others to follow, it is our obligation to do so with the means we have. The means I have includes building user-driven websites. And here is my effort to get that going.
