Brass horns here

This month's editorial in Inside Business talks about the NEO Success Formula. Successful companies in NEO, says editor Lute Harmon, Sr., are all practicing this formula--they're all expanding to other cities, states, and countries, and they've all learned to sell into new markets. And we should be proud and elated about that, he says, because they're keeping their headquarters here.

Ans so we are, here at Capitalist Cleveland. Don and his crew each week interview entrepreneurs who are achieving great things in this region. And these entreprneurs are a big part of what keeps the quality of life in Cleveland so high--passionate business people patronizing the museums, restaurants, parks, theaters, supporting the great health care service providers, the transportation and the music venues, and constantly recycling their revenues back into this region's economy (check out culture and events at entrepreneur David Stack's Plugged-In Cleveland).

So here's to the quality of life that we're all creating together. And, entrepreneurs, if your market includes big-time corporations, you've got some great prospects here (check out the Convention Bureau stat sheets here). Let's keep showin' 'em what we've got. And enrepreneurs with service businesses, let's keep giving all those HQ employees what they want and need.

Consider the brass horns sounded here.
