(Friday Morning Leads Group)  Are you kidding me? Where have I been? That was the best Friday morning I have had in a while! Great energy, amazing assortment of passionate business owners. I look forward to the learning more about the people and their products.  Kelley Rexroad, krexconsulting

Without question the best investment I have made in my business has been joining the UTB Chamber of Commerce.  I can honestly say that I have had more fun than I could have ever imagined, met great new friends and my business is growing due to this chamber's inclusive attitude.  Douglas Wheat, Whole Wheat Insurance

After utilizing resources at the Upper Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce. I knew it was right for me, and became a member! With the infinite resources that are now available to me through the chamber, my business growth potential has soared. In fact, since becoming a member, I have gained business from 16 new customers in 3 months. This has directly attributed to my involvement with the chamber and its members.  Christopher Gutz, President of SafeLink Networks LLC

I just had a call and picked up a new account in Oldsmar from the OCN (Oldsmar Community News) ad. Thank You!   Jim Hartley Hartley's Pool Service

I just want to thank you for the great article on my book, ISLAND IN A STORM. As a resident of Oldsmar, I appreciate your efforts very much. Best, Abby Abby (Asbury) Sallenger, PhD Oceanographer

Thank you for including the article on Gull Aire Village in the July 2009 issue of the OCN.  We're in New Hampshire for the summer and would have missed the article if were not for a couple of our neighbors who sent the issue via e-mail.  Of course, I now realize that I can view the OCN on line which I will faithfully do until our return home in the fall.   Dave    

From the answering machine..   A lady called in looking for a dentist for her husband.  She said Mark Howe went out of his way to give her names and took time with her.  She is not a member of the chamber or a business and she especially thought that it was very nice of Mark to help her.  Mark gave her a few names.  They were delighted with thier choice.  He explained everything to them and did not jump into root canal etc.  She said she will call back to thank Mark personally.  She was very glad that she called us and got the info she needed.
