Just so ya know: The Google Map is WRONG: Loannetter is located two blocks SW of the location pinpointed on this map above. Unit 102 is on the street level of Morse Square Condos. Railroad Avenue was extended (nobody told Google) and the lane is currently blocked between E. Laurel and E. Maple.

Easy to walk to from the Market Depot Square. Call if you need ADA access/parking inside. 360 647 8822.

This will be an informal fun exchange on the commercial financing 'how to's' ...very informative.

Looks like a great class, Susan! THanks for submitting. (Kinda wish this was in Seattle!) Kate

Worth the drive up...we'll have more of these themed events since business money is such a hot topic! Thanks for your interest, Kate!

Unfortunately it looks like I'm not going to be able to make it to this event. Too many things going on in my life all at once at the moment. Sorry for the last minute cancel.

Thanks for letting me know Chris. I had listed the event in a group so we have another person coming. Depending on ideas and interest I hope to sponsor an ongoing forum on this topic. See you again!

Thanks for a wonderful event! The format was perfect and the casual atmosphere made this somewhat intimidating subject (money) less formidable. In fact, I feel that my thinking was transformed this afternoon. I now understand that whatever it is I want to do, if money is a component of making that happen, that is not an obstacle. My challenge now is to think BIG and not limit myself.

As Joy, Ellen, and I were leaving, I was musing that utilizing positive thinking with an attitude of abundance vs. an attitude of scarcity is like the difference between "using positive thinking to realize that you're already at the top of the hill, rather than using positive thinking to drag yourself up the hill."

See, great ideas form when great people collaborate!

I will echo Naomi's thoughts. It was an very energetic event. Lots of good ideas and info. It was great to meet everyone. I am looking forward to more and hopefully being able to work with everyone. Thank you, Susan

Naomi and Mitchell, I was thrilled people were so willing to disucss issues close to their hearts and nothing is 'scarier' than money especially as we enter new arenas. Fortunately when great minds collaborate, great things happen! I am looking forward to another event on this topic --with your feedback. More of a hands on 'how to' approach the application and find the right lender...what do you think? Monthly?
