Independent business owners are invited to an evening discussion with sales effectiveness coach Lori Richardson, who recently published “1% Changes to Increase Your Revenue & Visibility.”

The free event, to be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 19, at The Silverwood Gallery, will also give business owners a change to get to know one another over wine and surrounded by art.

The evening is hosted by Islanders Bob Stewart, owner of Stewart Custom Homes, and Daniel Genser, co-owner of Zigflitz Design.

For more information, contact Genser at (206) 569-5458 or daniel@zigflitz.com or Stewart at 463-6401 or bob@stewartcustoms.com.
