SMPS DC is Blogging!
The Mission of the SMPS DC Blog
The Chapter leadership decided to launch an official Chapter blog in anticipation of the arrival of Build Business Larry to our nation’s capital. We hope to tempt Larry (and some of his co-horts) to post his escapades and lobster ‘tales’ here. To learn more about Larry, check out his Facebook fan page. We encourage you to become a fan!
Once Larry is safely on his way back home to Boston, chapter members will pick up where he left off. We will post all about the 2010 Build Business conference, as well as local event recaps and news. We hope you choose to become a follower of the blog or subscribe to our RSS feed.
