A big thank-you for your support this past year of the Miami County Chamber's Small Business Council training seminar series. Those chambers involved with the program include Covington, Piqua, Tipp City, West Milton and Troy (see below).

The 2005 Dale Carnegie seminar series was a tremendous success, and this year we will be partnering again with Dale Carnegie and the other chambers to offer the small business seminar series to all of the local businesses in Miami County. We are all pleased with the increased participation in the training seminars and are committed to continuing the growth and success of the program. In 2006, we are planning to offer (4) Dale Carnegie training seminars that will be held in the spring and fall.

Your support and involvement has been vital to the success of this program. We are asking you to support the Small Business Council program again this year and showcase your business in the Miami County Chambers ' Small Business Council brochure and the four monthly flyers. Your business name and logo will appear on the Small Business Council brochure that is being mailed out to chamber members in all five cities. We will also be spotlighting our sponsors at the March kick-off meeting and each of the (4) training seminars. The cost for supporting the programs and promoting your company in 2006 remains at $200.00.

As a thank your for your continued support, all sponsors will receive a complimentary coupon book that will allow you to send up to (2) attendees from your company to each session in 2006. This is a $100.00 value.

We believe the Small Business Seminars are a great benefit to the businesses in Miami County, and as a Miami countywide organization, we would appreciate your support. E-mail: covingtonchamber@yahoo.com for details.
