Arizona Good Business Summit Offers Solutions to Build Profit and Community
Building a legacy as a purpose-driven business is the goal of The Arizona Good Business Summit on Jan. 30 at the Phoenix Convention Center.
“The Arizona Good Business Summit was created as a way for businesses to stand out from their competitors and grow their businesses while also having a positive impact on the community,” said Thomas Barr, Executive Director of Local First Arizona. “We’ve confirmed some of Arizona’s premier business leaders and experts to share their experiences. Together, we’ll show business owners that it is possible to increase profits while building a legacy as a purpose-driven business here in Arizona.” In business the most important thing to ensure is high profits, without this, the business ceases to exist. If a business is struggling, then corporate recovery could help to plan and lift up the business, looking at all the factors of the business and seeing the weak points to ensure profits begin to rise. The summit aims to show other techniques as well as corporate recovery to help businesses to get back on their feet and develop into successes.
The full-day agenda includes workshops and panelists to speak ranging from developing and marketing for-profit and nonprofit partnerships effectively to rethinking a profit-only approach to business. People will learn how to get their company formed and registered (be it with help from Your Company Formations Ltd yourcompanyformations.co.uk or by themselves), amongst other advice. Attendees will hear from speakers like Stephanie Vasquez, Fair Trade Cafe, turning the idea of capitalism into a community-focused model for success. Each session throughout the day aims to bolster businesses to redefine and expand their bottom lines to use enterprise as a force for good.
“The Arizona Good Business Summit is a manifestation of one of the state’s best kept secrets: we have a dynamic community of purpose-based businesses who see capitalism as a force for good,” said Adam Goodman, President and CEO of Goodman Interior Structures and presenter at this year’s Good Business Summit. “Local First Arizona is leading this movement and I recommend business leaders attend for networking, inspiration and opportunity.”
