MEMBERS IN THE NEWS: Highlighting Member Success Congratulations to Gaylord Catering on their 50th Anniversary! David Chamberlain was hired in 1968 as a dishwasher. Dave attended and graduated from Madison Business College with a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with a major in accounting, all while working for Gaylord Catering. Gaylord Matti, founder of Gaylord Catering built the current commissary at 709 Atlas Avenue in 1972. Gaylord Catering operates 7 days a week out of the 8400 square foot facility which has a garage for indoor loading. In 1983, Matti sold the business to Chamberlain and another partner. In 1998 Dave became the sole owner after his partner sold his share to him. Mr. Chamberlain is the only owner today. The company evolved from hometown cooking to more upscale events. They have served millions of meals in the Madison and surrounding area over the years. Wisconsin Business Development (WBDFC) receives National Award! The Small Business Administration has awarded WBDFC of Monona the award of Large CDC (Certified Development Companies) of the Year! In the fiscal year 2012 WBDFC worked with 114 Wisconsin Financial institutions and obtained 302 loan approvals, totaling over $228 million and making WBDFC 3rd in the nation in SBA 504 loan approvals out of 255 CDC’s. WBD also holds the 6th largest loan portfolio in the country, having provided over $500 million in financing to small businesses. It has shown national leadership in helping businesses reduce their costs through use of a temporary SBA 504 refinancing program. WBDFC’s CEO Joseph Wolfe is former Board Chair of National Association of Development Companies (NADCO). “This recognition was earned through the exceptional work of the WBD staff to assist Wisconsin businesses in recovering from the recession,” said Joe Wolfe, CEO of WBD. “Working with the SBA and lending partners, we were able to allow over 300 businesses to grow their companies and help keep Wisconsin working.” Share your success stories with your fellow members!

6 Secrets To Sell Things Fast On Craigslist.org
Thanks For Thinking of Me! Did you know I can help you or any of your friends or family save time and money when buying or selling a home? Thanks for keeping me in mind with your referrals. . . and spreading the word about my services.
If you’re moving or just want to get rid of some extra things around your home, here are six tips to help you make the most of the online marketplace at www.craigslist.org:
Restaurant Reservations Made Easy. . .
1. Look at the “wanted” section to see if anyone wants what you’re selling. You may sell your item before creating an ad!
Want to make sure you have a reservation at your favorite restaurant? Reserve a space online by using www.opentable. com. It includes 28,000 restaurants in the U.S., Canada, Germany, Japan, Mexico, the Caribbean and the UK.
2. Research competition to see if your price is right. Search for similar items to set a competitive price, but leave room to negotiate. 3. Use your ad’s title to bring traffic. Be specific and state the price to get more people to click on y our ad. “Nice brown couch” is not as good as “Lightly used Brown 60 inch Crate & Barrel couch $500.” Research similar products advertised and be more descriptive to make your ad stand out.
Quotes To his dog, every man is Napoleon; hence, the constant popularity of dogs.
4. Include pictures or people may skip your ad. You don’t need a lot of pictures, but use at least one. Also, give specific details in the description (dimensions, attachments, etc.) to encourage serious buyers to contact you. And, specify “cash only,” “pick up only,” all sales final,” “price is firm” or “OBO” (Or Best Offer).
No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave. - Calvin Coolidge
5. Respond quickly by phone or email. Buyers have a lot of options and may move on to the next seller in the same day. 6. Keep your ad near the top. Every time you post an ad it appears at the top of the page, pushing other ads down. Check again tomorrow and it’s far down the page. Repost the ad every other day, or at least weekly, to increase the chance it gets noticed.

Scholarship Thank You Note
Allen Beilke wrote, “I would like to thank you for awarding me the 2013 Monona Chamber of Commerce Business Education Scholarship. The money you gave me will be very helpful and beneficial in my pursuit of a business degree from UWWhitewater. I truly consider this scholarship a blessing, considering the current state of the economy and the decrease in government financial support for college students. I hope to bring the knowledge of business that I learn back to the community and I want to thank you for playing a part in that.” The Monona Chamber of Commerce has provided $20,500.00 to Monona Grove graduating seniors through our Business Education Scholarships since 1998! Funds are currently collected through the Cottage Grove/Monona Chamber Scholarship Golf Outing and direct scholarship donations. Thank you for participating!
