Are your companies tired of multiple stakeholders calling on them?  Erik Collins led the charge to align everyone in the Dayton, OH area to build a robust BRE call program that has generated over 7,000 visits with private sector companies.

In this episode, Dennis interviews Erik, who serves as the Director of Community and Economic Development Department for Montgomery County, Ohio - a county of more than 500,000.

Although 7,000 calls sounds impressive, it is more than just the one-on-one conversations.  Stemming from the BRE visits, they have put together additional programming like business sector roundtables, resource rallies, and business walks.
