Being an RBTC Member is More Important Than Ever

To say 2020 has been different is an understatement as our way of life was destroyed in a time when most of us were enjoying prosperity and growth. Our world was turned upside down and the words “Zoom” and “pivot” became common in conversations. During this time, membership in RBTC was a lifeline to continue to meet others to help grow business and get moral and emotional support from peers.

RBTC offered opportunities to continue to feel connected to others in the business community, even during lockdown. We sought new ideas to engage customers and growing our business. That is the theme of the upcoming RBTC Holiday Social hosted by the BizDev Forum on December 10th.  We’ve designed an event that will be full of conversation and fun. We’ll be using breakout rooms for conversation on topics such as:

  • What were some of your most effective ideas or actions that helped grow your business during this pandemic?
  • What do you see as your biggest business challenge moving forward to 2021?

There will be something for everyone to help grow your business. Get into the holiday spirit with us, with some prizes and an interactive engagement software in use during the event.

Together we will celebrate the end of 2020, learn how others navigated the pandemic and get ready to go into 2021 together.  We will continue to be an association that learns from each other – supports each other – and most importantly, has fun with each other.
