My areas of expertise would be: following through on ideas, customer service skills, marketing, and promoting our companies image.
The main reason I joined QSC - I realized I had much to learn in order to improve our business. My first meeting really opened my eyes right up. I was so impressed with the level of class and knowledge this group has to offer.
QSC has benefitted my Company from day one. I have benefitted from my incoming phone etiquette to the deposit at the bank. QSC has given me the tools to build a succesful business with help from a great group of giving people.
My Contribution to Board of Trustees
It is time for me to give back to QSC a small token of my thanks for all the staff members and trustees before me that have made this group a real cookbook for success and friendship.
