Because of my age, experience and education, I decided since I have more disposable time today than I have had in the past, that I would join SCORE and help mentor young business professionals who either are having trouble with their existing business or those who want to start up a new business. Most of the guys in SCORE are well over the age of 65 and the vast majority of their experience is in management or accounting. I'm the youngest member at 50 and the only one whose background is in marketing and sales.
I'm mainly doing this to get my bum out of the house and off the computer. This one horse town I live in has very few successful businesses since all of the manufacturers have closed shop and moved overseas. All we have left here are restaurants, medical facilities and auto malls. The smaller mom & pop places are gone and it's a shame.
One of the things I'm hoping to help small business owners with is how to deal with angry or difficult customers while still retaining them and their business.
Are any of you involved in any civic organizations like S.C.O.R.E.? Rotary? Lions? Toastmasters? Kiwanis?
