I’m excited about being a new member of the Chamber of Commerce and being more a part of the Longmont community. Through the Chamber I’ll have opportunities for social networking get-togethers before and after hours and the chamber also has some business groups and training programs.
Our store and production facility is a little out of the way; not in the downtown retail area. We wanted it that way so that we could have more room for production. But none the less, I am always looking for ways to let people know that we are there. I was glad that the Ribbon Cutting brought in people who were not aware of our company or our store. I enjoy getting to explain the nature of our business to people.
Longmont is a great community to live and work in and I am happy to have my business here. I look forward to many years of growth and the ability to help support my community in a number of ways.
Are you a member of your Chamber of Commerce?
Your store looks really charming! I live in a semi-rural area, also. Real Estate downtown in expensive, and anything else is “out of the way.” So I can understand your choice of a place off the beaten path. I hope you can make it work!
Congrats on your store opening! I’m excited for you and for me! I hope to stop in when I’m near Longmont again. I lived there for 3 years and still have family there. Good Luck!
Great idea on combining your store and production facility! Being a member of your local Chamber will get the word out about your new business. Congratulations!
