Office Hours with the CDC
We are excited to host Office Hours with Angela Varilly from the CDC, here in the GBA office - Mondays from 9 AM to 11 AM, by appointment!
If you are a business owner with questions about how to grow your business, get connected, increase your funding - you MUST make time to talk with Angela from the CDC. Or perhaps you're a new business owner...or thinking about becoming a business owner...whatever your situation, you will love talking with Angela!
With a background in finance and over 19 years working in retail banking, Angela can help you spruce up your business plan, make some strategic moves, and think big picture about where you would like to see your business grow. She also runs the Business Accelerator at the CDC, and is a part of their 'Take the Floor' Pitch Competition - two great ways to dig even deeper on the opportunities to level up your business and brand.
Reach out to Angela to schedule a time to meet, right here in downtown Greenfield!
Tell Us '3 Things You Love About Greenfield'
We'd love to hear what YOU love about Greenfield...3 Things, actually!

Have three things you love that you're willing to share? Email Susan for more info
And don't worry, you don't even have to be IN the video if you don't want to be. Susan can help with voiceover work, if that feels more approachable. The main thing is - we're sharing what we love about Greenfield, and we hope you will too!
