SOHO Syracuse 2010

While the Small Business Presentations were too much product pitching, the SUNY Oswego Metro Center presentation on "Five Characterisics of Effective Teams" (by Dr. Kimberly Armani) was informative and validating.  I was able to esablish networking contacts with, and provide "Call" information to the following: CNY Latino...from the latino community for everyone in Central New York, a monthly publication; the rep will get info to the 27 or so contributors who routinely write for the paper. International Center of Syracuse (Vikki Smith), a non-profit organization that provides services that facilitate cross-cultural and international exchange in Central New York, and serves as a regional hub for cross-cultural and international exchange through networking and partnership with institutions/organizations in the U.S. and abroad, and Jake Horvat, Business Marketing Group Account Representative for Wegmans, which is a six-state supermarket/lifestyle operation.  Jake

Expanding the team

Finalized the bios for the creative/publication team and hope to share with the Board of Advisors on October 15.  The official appointment letter is ready and just needs to be fine tuned.  Will represent aaduna at SOHO Syracuse 2010, a small business show at the Pirro Convention Center at Oncenter, Syracuse, NY.  Left "Call" postcards at the Seward Library and Downtown Books and Coffee in Auburn yesterday, and did a similar task at The Center at High Falls/Fine Art Gallery, and LJ II's, a Jamaican restaurant both in Rochester.  My contact at LJ II's will get them out to folks this week.
