TradeNet Providing Help in West County

Time to feel good and help your community. Tradenet is here for the small business owner...you don't have to be alone.

There is no doubt in my mind that times are tough. Everyone is feeling a pinch in this economy.

The one thing I have done in the last six months was to join TradeNet.

I am a small business owner and felt the need to talk with other business owners to see how they were 'making it' and to see how maybe I could help the community too.

Well, the good news is that I have learned more in the last six months then trying to do it all on my own. Just sharing in the meeting and listening to other business owners describe their work has proved invaluable. Most of all, I am very grateful to work with these wonderful people in a combined effort to help our community in ways that I would not be able to do alone.

This Spring we were able to help a family instantly. Everyone took responsibility and the task was accomplished quickly and efficiently....and from the heart.
