From Small Deals To Big Deals!

The WCRT is proud to bring back some amazing individuals that have been around for years. They started in the early days of the WCRT and now have made their dreams become reality. Last month we talked about deals, this month, we will follow members down the path and journey to be true Entrepenuers. Follow along as they share their stories of how they met at the WCRT, began working together, and now have reached the level that many of us dream of on a daily basis.

They are coming back to share their growth as entrepreneurs and give back with nuggets of wisdom they have learned. With a short informal presentation they will share their deals, their starts, their stops, as well as their triumphs. Then we will shift to an open question/topic segment where attendees can feel free to ask advice and questions. Join us as Eric Hansen and David Krock return to the WCRT this month to GIVE BACK!
