Selling Yourself: Creative Networking Session (JULY 18) Recap

Fortunately moderator, Dan England raised some good questions and in turn our panelists shared several helpful tips and insights.

Business Spotlight: Allo Fiber

ALLO has grown community by community, building infrastructure and creating new jobs to support their service in each. Unlike their competitors ALLO is committed to ubiquitous builds–or systems that reach every neighborhood, complete with service brought all the way up to the home. They don’t just cherry-pick streets based on property values, and they make sure no additional hook-up installation is required. Plus, if you call support, it might just be a neighbor or community member you recognize ready to answer your questions. These policies and the additional investment they require are the living embodiment of the company’s core values.

The library is really just part of it.
