The Metro Atlanta Business Association is a new regional business development organization for the 20-county metro Atlanta-area's business owners and senior executives -- that identify with Small and Midsize Business/Enterprise (SMB or SME) as their target market -- who have joined together to promote success, enhance development, employ advanced marketing techniques, increase sales, optimize business growth and revenue, develop and explore ways to reduce expenses and costs, discover new contacts, and maximize employee production and results -- through professional business events, networking, educational, sharing, advertising and marketing initiatives for the region.
The goals of the association are to help member businesses Increase Sales, Reduce Expenses, Sustain Business Longevity, Success and Profitability.
For the past several years, many well connected business owners and networking professionals, including our founders, observed and attended many local, pre-existing business organizations -- throughout the 20-plus county metro Atlanta region -- and observed some inherent limitations in relation to providing a new source of high-energy networking, new contacts, business development opportunities, events and discussion of relevant business topics that are targeted to the entire metro-Atlanta region.
Business professionals have been looking for a higher-end regional collection of advocates and supporters, instead of some of the “same” contacts limited to a specific county or city/town. The Metro Atlanta Business Association recognized an opportunity to provide events for attendance and participation to be beneficial and helpful for business owners and senior executives to prosper, succeed and discover new potential business partners throughout the entire 20-county metro Atlanta region.
The Metro Atlanta Business Association was formed in April, 2017 to gather and maintain a focused group of like-minded professionals, meeting at varied special venues in the metro Atlanta-area, coupled with on-point and useful topics on many of the issues which confront the business owner of today. Our association is not for everyone but is intended for the business owner or entrepreneur who wishes to be a part of a “business association on steroids” at an affordable investment, that impacts, engages, appeals and markets to the metro-Atlanta region as a whole.
