The Business Expo can be a great opportunity for you and your business.  So many times we hear that exhibitions are not providing the networking and business connections expected. Trade show success depends upon the effort that you put into your exhibit. Learn why you need to plan for a great exhibit at an expo. You will be lead through trends and specific strategies for gaining a higher level of exposure.
When:
Thursday, September 21st
12:00pm-1:00pm-Lunch and Learn

Our Purpose:
Third Thursday is a monthly small business counseling program hosted by the Lexington Area Chamber of Commerce and DCCC's Small Business Center.   This is a no-appointment-needed service.  The Chamber refers businesses to the Small Business Center both here and on the DCCC campus. But this is a specific designated time when you know that support and advice will be available.  Entrepreneurship is the fastest growing segment of business development. Marketing, finance, business plans and other issues are common to those seeking assistance.  Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for businesses to get free assistance.
