Fall is here, and it's a good time to look toward expanding our mambership. Several business categories are currently available, among them are Chiropractor, Credit Card Processing, Drafting, Eye Doctor, Flowers/Florist, Janitorial, Landscape Supply, lighting, Mini-Storage, Notary, Photography, Real Estate Inspection, Shipping/Postal Services, Title Company and Window Cleaning. Of course, these are just examples and, potentially there are many others. Consider those that you've done business with and that you would be comfortable referring business to.
As always, potential new members business categories should be PRE-viewed with the V.P (Kathie Colosimo).
In the past few months, we have seen a decline in regular attendance. With that in mind, I have a couple of requests.
- First - Please read the bylaws. Re-acquainting outselves with our mission and member responsibilities might be useful.
- Second - If you know members that have been missing regnular meetings, perhaps a call from a fellow member would be useful. The board will soon be sending lettters to members who consistantly miss our meetings as well.
- Third - This board has been open to suggestions for how we might improve our meetings. If you have a suggestion, bring them up with the board. In person or via email.
IMPORTANT REQUEST FOR SPONSORING MEMBERS
Please contact Kathie Colosimo, Vice President of PowerTipps before inviting new members. The V.P. will help to make sure that there are no conflicts with existing members.
Please view the bylaws for updates based on recent meetings.
If you have suggestions, please contact one of the board members or send an email to TheBoard@powertipps.com.

Speaker: |

John Corcoran from Remax by the Lake spoke to the group about buying rentals. One reason would be for debt reduction. 1/30th of your debt will be paid of each year that you have your property rented! The government allows for 1/27th for a tax deduction, 1031 exchange, or refinance, Arrange to will the rental to your kids in case of your death and capital gains tax will be deferred. Rentals are a great investment and the best deals now are auctions and lease purchases!
Next week’s speaker - Bub St. Peters of A-1 Fire Control
