“Help”, “Come Together”: The Battle Cry Of Hoschton Residents Has Been Heard.

Feb. 23, 2010 - PRLog -- Flowery Branch, Georgia – Recent current events reveal that Hoschton residents and business owners are concerned with the financial crisis currently wrapping its boney fingers around the city’s budget.  A recent article in The Paper revealed that the city of Hoschton is more than $6 million in debt and has had to cut vital city services and some city personnel in order to reduce its current budget shortfall this year.

“Cutting expenses is just one way to reduce or eliminate budget shortfalls,” says Jimmy Slagle, CEO of http://LocalBizVIP.com and http://businessconsultingatlanta.com, a local business consulting and marketing firm that specializes in bringing local consumers and local business together.  Slagle adds that “raising revenue is a better way to reduce or eliminate budget shortfalls”.  

Peter F. Drucker says that opportunities for sudden growth are often hidden inside sudden change.  He states that a great leader should first ask the question, “How can I best serve?”  

“When I read the article ‘Residents Urged to Get Involved’ in The Paper, I knew I had to do something”, Slagle says with a smile.  “We are in the midst of major economic change, not only on a national level but on the local levels as well.  If we can harness this change and teach local businesses how to capitalize on it, they can systematically create an influx of new customers which will ultimately raise revenues and reduce expenses.”  

It is for this reason that Slagle created the live workshop for local business owners entitled: “Local Biz + Local Customers = Results”.  In this four-hour workshop Slagle will teach local business owners how to use the power of sudden change to create sudden growth.  Hoschton business owners will learn about a no-cost marketing method every local business owner can use that can easily add thousands of dollars to their bottom-line.

Slagle will also teach Hoschton business owners:
• How People’s Behavior Changes in a Recession and How to Profit from It.
• What You Should NEVER Do in a Recession and What to Do Instead.
• The 4 Reasons Why You Need to Market Your Business on the Internet.
• The Top 3 Ways to Market Your Business on the Internet.

During this live workshop Slagle will select two volunteers from the participants and show them exactly what they can do to reach out to local customers and use the strategies being taught.

“I believe that if I can teach Hoschton business owners how to reach out and effectively market to their local community using free and low-cost methods, this will ultimately raise their revenues.  The revenue upswing will increase the tax base, raise the revenues the city collects, and grow, prosper and strengthen the local community.”
