One month is gone for 2012. But business is good in Lettip CCE!

Our first speaker was Mike Dunn, Preservation Tree, showing us a short informational video of "vertical mulching", using a custom made compost formula to enrich the delicate root system of a large diseased tree. One no longer has to just wait for a tree to die, but Mike can feed nutrients to the roots and extend the life of trees. A wonderful service to keep all trees on your property alive and well.

SLCI, owner Dieter Enz, is the Ultimate Boutigue painting company. Dieter is an internationallly known and globally traveled painter, whose experience spans three continents.

Happy new Year from LeTip CCE! In 2011, 863 tips were generated resulting in over $525,000 in revenue!! Your business CAN be a part of this!

The new year is all about passion. Scott Brown, James Brown Plumbing and Heating, is passionate to get his clients to save money on energy bills and more efficient heating this winter. Coverting from oil to gas is very simple and he can provide this service. He explained the cost effective ways to use some of the system already in place in homes and convert. His passion is to stand behind everything he does, so you do not call him in the middle of the night, freezing.

Sue Bullock, Tuttle Marketing Service, presented a "WOW" talk about her passion, naming what is your passion. What makes you different from your competitors, what can get others to SEE you, and what you want people to know about you, is the foundation of her business. Specializing in focusing on a message through promotional products that says you are different, and getting your clients to remember you, is what Sue is all about. Great talk!

February 7 will be our first Business Mixer of the New Year. Open to any business interested in growing and getting new leads.

Our Second to last meeting of 2011 and we have hit one half MILLION dollars in referrals and tips! Your business could be a part of this!

Our newest member, Susan Salvo, of Art and Architecture, presented a talk of her roots and beginnings. From a very young child her interest was in building, as she built her own cabin for tea parties and friends. Her credentials are many, one being designing the offices for National Geographic building, the Henrietta Hankin Library and other local and regional works. She also does wonderful architectural renderings, and her diversive background allows her to design office spaces, additions, malls, residential living spaces and more!

Our other newest member, David Marshall, of ADP Payroll systems, showed us an online program for any small business to track payroll. His company sets up a program, includes all information that is automatically updated, and includes all information needed for each employee. It is so easy and simple for your payroll, tax updates, 1099's, and their company guarantees delivery of paychecks in 24 hours.

Feb 7 2012 will be the first Business Mixer of the new year. Anyone is welcomed to showcase their business. Reserve a table and grow your business!
