Praise For Chamber Advantage...

“You offer valuable information on networking, advertising, public speaking, and developing your business to stand out from competitors.” —Nikki Boccelli

"This book super easy to read, straightforward, and easy to understand. It’s written in a way where even I could understand it, someone with absolutely no experience with this. It’s simple without being condescending, and it’s not overly academic or business-y. He walks you step-by-step through everything you need to know, explaining clearly all the steps and providing convenient fill-in-the-blanks at the end of the chapters to guide you along the way. Overall a great intro level book on the chamber of commerce." —Analia Kaufman
