With all that is going on with COVID-19, I'm happy to say that the Chamber is hosting an educational forum for local businesses on how to meet the challenges brought to the forefront by the pandemic.
RESCHEDULED!: Due to a technical glitch in the presenting software, this has been rescheduled to Thursday May 28.
Same bat time, Same bat place. Different bat day!
(A reference to the original Batman
It's going to happen on Thursday May 28 from 9 am-3 pm. And my wife Stephanie Schwab (who as many of you might know, is a super-dynamite marketer and thought leader in digital marketing) is going to be speaking at one of the forums.
(She's also going to be teaching separately a class on how to switch your business from offline to online and go from stuck to productive in 3 short weeks)

SWITCH: Go from stuck and overwhelmed to bringing in online revenue - in just three short weeks!) |
At the Edgewater Essentials Virtual Forum, there will be 5 education sessions with more than 15 presenters, and topics ranging from managing your online presence to how to protect your business and its employees, to how to establish healthy routines. I've included the schedule below.
There will also be chat and networking rooms, so that registrants can expand their professional circles, collaborate with others, and provide (and receive) personal support.
And at 12 pm, you can attend our annual business meeting, and find out about what's going on with the Chamber, about our recent merger with the Edgewater Development Corporation, and how our new 3-year plan can help our community.
Attendees will be able to diversify their skills through these presentations, facilitated discussions, workshops, networking opportunities, and other virtual activities, all from the privacy of their own home.
This event is meant to be a springboard for the community to share experiences and interact with like-minded business owners and professionals. Everyone is welcome to participate, even people who are not yet members of the Chamber. Attendees can join for one session or stay on for the full schedule of events featured in the day-long program free of charge.
Registration is free, and all of the conferences will be recorded, so all registrants will be able to view all of the sessions, even if they can't attend all of them.
Register online for free tickets to the Edgewater Essentials Virtual Forum.
