Last night's "Using Online Technology to Promote Your Business" workshop sponsored by the Downtown Development Association went very well. There were only five business people in attendance, but they now have a better of understanding of how to use a blog and the social networks to help market their businesses. Jason Pedley gave a very good presentation and was able to introduce the participants to actual blogs and Facebook and Twitter accounts to show how they work. An encore workshop will be scheduled for sometime in the future.
Please note the next workshop is scheduled for next Tuesday, March 17 at 7:00 pm
Businesses Moving into Existing Buildings
Meeting Code & Avoiding Costly Delays
Downtown buildings have charm that cannot be matched anywhere else, but older buildings can also create challenges before a business can move in. Local architect Tony Johnson will explain the process to meet state building codes that property owners and businesses need to know to avoid delays and bad decisions which could be costly and confusing.
Who should attend: Downtown property owners; real estate brokers, potential and existing business owners.
The following topics will be covered:
- The difference between zoning and building codes
- Decision process for converting residential to commercial
- Navigating the regulatory jungle
- What property owners can do to make their buildings “move-in ready”
Location: All workshops will be held at the Clayton Center
Fee: Each workshop is $5.00 per person
