spotlight on november
If you have been following along the last few months then you know that Spot- light on Business has been working with Carra Cheslin, Director of Engagement and Ben Delman, Communications Director of Solar United Neighbors to get the word out about the non-profit that started in Washington, D.C. back in 2007 when Solar United Neighbors Executive Director was asked by her son, if they could go solar. Spoiler Alert, she did and along the way built an organization that now supports communities, homeowners and businesses in 13 states and has overseen over 4,100 installations for a total of 32 megawatts of electricity. If you are a regular reader of the magazine then you also know that we have a continuing series on Craft Brewing, well this month we are combining them both as we spotlight Solar United Neighbors’ Brews from the Sun Completion and the breweries that are using solar in the pursuit of the perfect pint. Speaking of events, if you are a promoter of any ticketed event either large or small, then you need to read our article on Ticketpro Inc in this month’s issue and learn more about this innovative Canadian company and how their experienced and dedicated team can take your customer’s ticketing experience to the next level. We spoke with Ticketpro Inc President, Guislaine Bulman, from her office in Montreal about how the company is focused on making your event and your customer’s ticketing experience truly exceptional. Bulman tells Spotlight on Business about Ticketpro’s product offerings, exceptional customer service and how important it is to the success of any event, large or small, for the customer to have a memorable experience for all the right reasons and that experience starts when they go to purchase their tickets. Brad Neu of Montana Log Homes knows he’s in the dream business. He knew it when he helped his business partner-to-be build his first family home out of necessity. He knew it when a few years later his homes were being featured in publications all across the U.S and that is why he’s been handcrafting custom log homes since 1975. We learn how Montana Log Homes make dreams come true and how they work with only large diameter, dead-standing Lodgepole Pine,
Engelmann Spruce, or Western Red Cedar selected from the prime timber stands of Montana, that are then hand- peeled, cut, and carved into your dream log home package. From building dream homes to building a nation, we review the results from Canada’s 43rd general election and it seems that Canada is more divided now than ever, but this time it is more region against region than party against party. We hope you enjoy this month’s issue and we would like to thank all of our featured companies for sharing their challenges, successes and for inspir- ing others to follow their dreams and passions. We also thank all those involved in putting this issue together along with our advertisers and readers as we look forward to telling more stories about successful businesses and the people behind making it all happen.
