Success Seminar is a Success

Annual event draws nearly 100 people

On Friday May 11 the Chamber of Commerce and the City put on another great event with “Secrets and Strategies to Business Success”. Steve Smith (GrowthSource Consulting) was the MC and also spoke about “Simple Strategies for Maximum Results”. There was a panel discussion with Leisa Reid (Productive Learning), Tim Santoni (Santori Worldwide) and Kelly Moore (Moore Benefits) and the keynote speaker was Kim Kat Shepherd (The Ultimate Professional).

The event was sponsored by Landsea Homes, Eagle Community Credit Union (Pictured here), Spectrum Specialties and Awards, Power Cleaners and there was great food and drinks from Wafflette Café, Jimmy Johns, Patch Coffee, and Bowl of Heaven.

About 100 people were in attendance including Carlo Tomaino from the City’s Economic Development staff, Mary Visconte and Jeremy Olson from the Chamber.

This event is held annually, and it constantly re-invents itself. Having been to a half dozen previous incarnations, I believe this one was the best. Don't miss it next year.
