Regional Business Expo

The Regional Business Expo Kickoff Dinner is scheduled on Nov. 4 and Expo on Saturday, Nov. 5, in Madison, Indiana. This is an excellent business to business networking opportunity for your business. In the past we have sponsored a table at the Expo featuring members of the Rising Sun-Ohio County Chamber of Commerce. Business seminars will take center stage at the Business Expo, as experts on marketing, customer relations and business start-ups are scheduled for presentations on the main exhibit floor at Madison Consolidated High School. Booths will be arranged so that all Expo exhibitors will be able to participate without leaving their booths.

Presenters will include: Tom Egelhoff the nation’s leading authority on how to do business in small towns and small markets. For more than 35 years, Tom’s business, advertising and marketing workshops and seminars have helped thousands of small town business owners become more profitable and successful. His website is www.smalltownmarketing.com. Headquartered in Bozeman, Montana, Tom has written two books, “How to Market, Advertise and Promote Your Business or Service in a Small Town” and “The Small Town Advertising Handbook: How to Say More and Spend Less.”
