Business Longevity – Success for the Long Haul

Running a small business certainly has its challenges.  An owner who remains flexible, sets realistic goals and plans for inevitable downturns can outlast the competition and achieve long-term success. Chris Noble's company, Marnoble Computer Sales & Service, has succeeded by keeping client service on target, on task and on schedule. 

Her presentation will offer a common-sense approach to running a business, based on her (and her extraordinary team’s) 18-year success, a healthy bottom line and myriad awards from the community.

Join us on Thursday, Feb. 12, 2009, to hear Chris describe some of the secrets of Marnoble’s success, including:

• Attracting and keeping the right employees
