In conjunction with the Greater Reading Economic Partnership and Reading Chamber of Commerce, Mark Metals, a division of The Rose Corp, recently hosted an “Open House” at our metals service center facility on April 19. It was a wonderful success and, as we discovered, a great venue to showcase our metal products and services.

The objective was to build awareness among our target market - our local contractors and manufacturers, and open our doors to new clients. The brand new opportunities that we are currently discussing is a positive measurement of this event’s success. If you want to build credibility and increase awareness with local business clientele, host an "Open House" for your business.

I recommend taking advantage of the services offered by your local Chamber of Commerce; they can be instrumental in helping to effectively plan and execute.  Open the doors to your business community and welcome new clients and networking partners.
