5 August – BBC Friday – Discussion: “Business Success Stories”

Today’s BBC group discussion will also include “CRM – Contact Relation Management Systems/Software – what works for you?”

Invite a friend or associate to join us for this lazy days of summer discussion — and a delightful summer cup of BBC!

BBC Summer-Fall Project Idea: “GFB, Gluten-Free Bainbridge” (not the Georgia Farm Bureau) — the idea is for interested BBC regulars to start a listing of all gluten-free restaurants, stores, business, and groups (whether for gluten-intolerance or celiac disease). It is already well-known that Blackbird Bakery has gluten-free breads, T&C offers a good selection of gluten-free products, a few restaurants such as the new 122 BAR (http://the122bar.com/) and Local Harvest (http://localharvestrestaurant.com/) offer gluten-free drinks and some dishes. But it doesn’t seem that there is an exhaustive GFB listing. Maybe we of the BBC can contribute that list to our business community. I recently spoke with the folks at Bainbridge Organic Distillery (http://bainbridgedistillers.com/), and they were very receptive to the idea of not only listing places, but including details of what gluten-free products are carried or prepared, and how they might include more items in that category in the future.  The few websites that help list these island places:

If this project sounds interesting to you, contact Dave Kragen for suggestions or support.
Thanks.
PS. glutenfreebainbridge.com is available if someone wanted to snag that domain name.
