• NETWORKING THE 400 CORRIDOR

OUR VISIONBUILDING RELATIONSHIPS IN THE 400 CORRIDOR

The goal of BUSINESS 400 is to provide the Highway 400

community with opportunity. The opportunity to

effectively network. The opportunity to view the 400

corridor as a single economic engine that we share in

common.

A common association offers the opportunity to unify

our businesses, our city and county governments, our

business associations, and our charities and non-profits. Our

goal is to positively impact the 400 community and the way

these various entities interact. A true network highway.

SHORT TERM POSSIBILITIES

The short term goal of BUSINESS 400, simply put, is to do more

business. Our monthly networking events are to be held at The

Metropolitan Club, the first Tuesday of each month, from 5:00 to 7:00 pm.

These events are designed to expand our sphere of influence throughout

the 400 corridor.

We will function as a business to business and a business to consumer

network. We will encourage participants to function as a business to

community network.

The future of the Highway 400 business corridor is bright. BUSINESS 400

wants to cast more light on the companies and individuals that make the

400 corridor business community a shining light in a dark economy!

LONG TERM POSSIBILITIES

The long term goal of BUSINESS 400 is to evolve into a

multifaceted association that has a voice in the many issues

that influence the progress of the 400 corridor business

community.

We intend to survey the BUSINESS 400 participants as to

their views on a variety of issues. This is not a political effort,

but a practical effort. It is intended to help guide the various

entities that make decisions regarding the issues affecting the

400 business community. The knowledge and experience of

the business community can provide input to develop more

effective policy regarding the 400 corridor.

A SPIRIT OF COOPERATION

The Chambers of Commerce and other business

associations can embrace this spirit of cooperation to

move their local organizations forward as they move

the 400 corridor forward as a whole. There will be a

concerted effort encouraging more businesses to join

local chambers and associations, and increase their

level of participation in those groups, individually, and

the 400 corridor as a whole. There is a strength in

numbers, a rising tide lifts all boats opportunity, at the

core of BUSINESS 400.

PEOPLE DON’T CARE HOW MUCH YOU KNOWUNTIL THEY KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE.

The soul of BUSINESS 400 will be the involvement of charities and nonprofits. We will encourage the Business 400 membership to create programs that not only benefits the charities, but also involves them in events designed to increase the profile of the charities and their business partners in the greater community. The skills developed in the process of moving businesses forward can aid charities and nonprofits, as well. The sharing of those skills can be mutually beneficial. Business can do well by doing good.

NETWORKING

WE CAN’T BAIL YOU OUT, BUT WE CAN LIFT YOU UP! How? Networking. Our Network For Success family held an incredible network event at the beautiful METROPOLITAN CLUB. Networking ran rampant! Weeks later, we are still hearing from business people, amazed at the record turnout, as well as the energy and opportunity at the event. People are working overtime, expanding relationships begun that night. Network For Success has many new members, and a waiting list, as a result!
