Additionally, having such strong members of our network speak at this event is exciting. The panel and class held by our very own Emily Staples and Jeff Lewis will provide valuable information and offer those who attend the chance to improve both themselves and their business.”

There were a lot of things I didn’t know before opening a business that I wish someone would have told me.”
