Comments regarding the Executive Workshop for Business Owners & Their Trusted Advisors/January 14-15, 2008:

My business partner and I absolutely felt there was a great deal of “take away” for business owners at the conference. We did suggest that perhaps the next conference could include business owners who have gone through the process, and can talk about the challenges, perhaps what advisors they retained, any unforeseen pitfalls they encountered during the process. It would be great to have a panel of them talk about various experiences “from the trenches”.

We are definitely working on our strategy so that when the time comes, we will be in a positive position to sell our company.

Thank you, and I look forward to being able to access the conference information online as a refresher. Please let me know when all the files have been uploaded. My business partner and I will sit down together and “attend the conference again” virtually.
