Business Walk Volunteers

BusinessFirst! needs volunteers to meet with companies during its first Business Walk of 2017 in Germantown. The walk will be held Thursday, July 13, from 10:00am-12:00pm.

Business walks are an opportunity to touch small and medium-sized companies and provide them with information about new programs and services, as well as local community events.

If you are interested in volunteering but cannot make the event in Germantown, don’t worry. BusinessFirst! is planning a more walks later this year.

For more information about Business Walks, or to find out about volunteering, please contact Mike Norton-Smith at 937.224.3848 or SmithMN@mcohio.org.

I wanted to send you a note that we have decided to move the IEDC Certification Refresher Course to Q1 2018.  We had strong interest, but I felt we needed about five more registrants to get the maximum benefits for the attendees. 
I hope that you consider attending early next year.  OUEDI will be doing multi-state marketing for next year's class that is around the corner.  I expect to have a strong turnout. 
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Weekly Resource Partner Spotlight

County Corp Development is a small business lending resource helping small businesses in our region expand.  We provide low fixed interest rate long term loans for investments in real estate and equipment.  Partnering with local lending institutions, we help small businesses reduce the required cash equity to expand.  A sampling of recent loan approvals from County Corp Development include the following businesses: a food service franchise, a child day care provider, a manufacturer of composite building products, an optometrist, and an automobile dealer.  All of these businesses pursued financing from County Corp Development to lower their required cash equity to get their project completed, and to reduce their project interest expense cost.
Steve Naas, President, County Corp

BusinessFirst! program was created to be a resource for all of our communities and their businesses.

The tornados affected large areas of our communities and the BusinessFirst! team is currently working on several aspects of business outreach to area businesses that have been impacted by the disaster. 

Our goal is to work with the communities from a coordination standpoint of outreach, collecting critical information, sharing what they are learning thus far from their businesses, and linking the right resources to them based on their immediate needs.  

Stay tuned for more information on a GOTO meeting for the new BF! DISASTER ASSESSMENT module.

Our second Disaster Recovery Business Walk will focus on businesses in the City of Trotwood.  The walk will be on Wednesday, June 26 from 1-5pm.  We will be meeting at the City of Trotwood Government Offices, 3035 Olive Rd # 2, Trotwood, OH 45426, where we will split into teams and get information packets.

If you are interested in joining the Business Walk group, let me know.  If you are only available for a couple of hours, we can work you in as well.

Communities, volunteer organizations, and individuals have been working hard to help local businesses and residents recover from the tornado damage over the last few weeks.  Many businesses are back up and running now, thanks in part to the work of their local economic development and city staffs.  It’s important to reach out to these businesses again and see how their recovery is going and get a better understanding of the economic impact the storms had on our businesses and their employees.

Wear comfortable shoes and if there is a chance of rain you may want to have an umbrella handy.  Let me know if you are available to join us.  If you have any questions, please call me on my cell phone 937-776-3017.  Thanks!

It is official, the very first BusinessFirst! Business Walk in Huber Heights is confirmed for Thursday, September 12th. Thank you Jason for the opportunity to work with you and the City of Huber Heights on this.

Business Walks are an opportunity to briefly meet with businesses to find out how they’re doing and let them know about resources and programs available and more importantly discover how we can assist them if needed. They are also an opportunity to say “Thank you” for being in Huber Heights. 

Details of the walk are below:

9:00 am – Meet & Brief at the City of Huber Heights, 6131 Taylorsville Road, Huber Heights, OH 45424
9:30 am – 12:30 pm – Business Walk
12:30 pm – 1:30 pm – Lunch & Debriefing, City of Huber Heights

We plan to visit approximately 55 businesses ranging from manufacturing, distribution, medical and more so we need several people to accomplish this in little more than three hours!

Please consider joining us and let me know if you are able to attend.

Thank you,
Pam
