Small business is the backbone of this country's economy. This blog is dedicated to helping small business owners succeed by posting information that is useful and timely because business matters.
What We're About
This blog is a provision of the Grandview Area Chamber of Commerce in Grandview, MO, and is intended as a positive resource with timely information for members of the business community at large.
As it is an extension of services for all businesses which are member of said Chamber, it also encompasses the Mission of The Grandview Area Chamber of Commerce, which is: to serve the business community through promoting a positive business environment and encouraging economic growth, leadership, education, and interaction. With that in mind, this blog encourages the interaction of all small business owners, regardless of their affiliation with said Chamber.
Because, as one succeeds, we all succeed.
Focusing on quality is a very solid strategy that Five Guys is having success with. As business increases, it becomes increasingly difficult to provide top notch quality, but it is worth the effort. I especially like the part about sticking to their guns when telling the Admiral at the Pentagon they don't deliver...resulting in increased business from the Pentagon.
