2012 Business Plan Competition

Are you ready for Christmas? Did you shop our local Chamber member businesses? Did you get a Hot Deal this year? Our Chamber members made it EASY for shoppers to find the perfect gift items and services and at a great price. On behalf of all the 425 Toccoa-Stephens County Chamber members, we thank you for buying local!

Our Economic Development Committee is ready to roll out the 2012 Business Plan Competition at a luncheon on Thursday, January 19th.

Entrepreneurs are encouraged to register for this opportunity to meet resource providers, network with other entrepreneurs and experience the opportunities that come with a Chamber membership.

Participants will meet with Toccoa Falls College business school students as well as business professionals from North Georgia Technical College, UGA Small Business Development Center and SCORE.

The final review of their Business Plans will be done by the Economic Development Committee for a chance to win over $1,200 in prizes designed for small businesses, including web site services, legal services, banking services and much, much, more.

Do you know an entrepreneur working out of their homes with a business idea you think could win? Could they use some start-up capital and resource support to get their businesses off the ground? Please call the Chamber to register for the competition today!

Our Chamber is the leading private business association in our community. We serve, promote and protect our members. Please join the Chamber today and let’s build a better Community, together. Call 706-886-2132.
