I’m calling businesses close to me to find out what they want for Christmas and for 2010.

I think, relying upon the “6 Degrees of Separation” concept, we can all help them get it.  Whether it is more referrals, someone with a specific skill set or information on how to seize a particular opportunity – the answers they need are within our reach!  Let’s prime the pump for local companies!

Bruce Ramsey of Mel-Ba Manufacturing in Elyria, Ohio wants referrals to military parts suppliers.

Bobby Colagross of Awesome Wares, in Avon, Ohio wants you to have great branded gifts to give to your clients.

Aaron Baaske of Medway Corp. of Amherst, Ohio wants more people to realize they have a better choice than the drug store seat riser.

Terry, Ed & Nancy, three of the family members at Stewart’s Appliance and Electronics in Elyria want folks to know that they are part of a billion dollar buying group and have better prices than the big box stores.   They want you to enjoy your shopping experience, get a better deal, better pricing and learn why Stewart’s customers won’t go anywhere else.

Tina Hobart at Zaytran in Elyria, Ohio would like to see a pickup in the automotive business so they can get everybody back to work.  Their work grippers have applications in many industries – check them out!

More to come…
