BBC Friday 21 Dec 2018 – Doing Business On Bainbridge In 2019, w/ Leslie Schneider

Join us this BBC Friday for a year-end conversation with Leslie Schneider, OfficeXpats co-owner and longtime BBC Regular: “COBI and Bainbridge Business in 2019” (it’s just around the corner).

Leslie will not only talk about cool City stuff possibly upcoming in 2019, but she also wants to access her BBC Board Of Directors, to pick our collective brains. She appreciates us — and we APPRECIATE her (and Jason) for their years of hosting the BBC!

Leslie moved to Bainbridge Island in 2009, where her son graduated from BHS in 2015. She started a coworking business in 2011 called OfficeXpats with partner Jason Omens. OfficeXpats is a shared office space and collaborative hub for independent professionals, and it won the Chamber Of Commerce small business of the year award for 2014 for its support of local business and the community. Leslie has also served on the boards of Sustainable Bainbridge and the Kitsap Regional Library Foundation.

This Friday Dec. 21 – The first BBC UGLY HOLIDAY SWEATER CONTEST (and maybe the last?). There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd … ugliest sweater. Thanks (I think…) to Paula Weissinger, State Farm Insurance & “Friends Of The Post Office,” for sponsoring this exciting new event!

Be here, be free, be businesswise. For, in a sense, me hearties, as serial entrepreneurials, we all be business wise!
