As you know the 4th Friday of the month is Your Biz Your Town on The WGVU Morning Show with Shelley Irwin. We invite the best companies we know to chat with us about topics ranging from events to growth to development.
For this month’s show we invited Creston Industrial Sales and Methods Machine to chat about the upcoming Advanced Manufacturing Expo (AME)on August 24th. This year the show is introducing a Metal Working Hall, sponsored by Creston, featuring companies offering the latest advancements in cutting tools, coatings, work and tool holding, as well as metal working fluids, additive manufacturing, and inventory management solutions.
Creston Industrial Sales supplies manufacturers, engineers and end-users with metal working products and innovative solutions while also functioning as an extension of their team. The company has been around for 50 years and is based in Grand Rapids and serves West Michigan.
Methods Machine Tools, Inc. has been North America’s foremost supplier of leading-edge precision machine tool and additive solutions – providing superior products, engineering and automation, parts and service, training and integration.
In addition to the more than 120 booths, there will be free seminars on new technologies in the metal working industry. It is important to note that the expo is FREE, but registration is recommended, especially if you want to get in on all the awesome giveaways.
Check out the interview with Shelley and 834.

We put everything business owners, employees, and educators told us on the wall, and guess what... yeah, some of it was mean.
The point is, everyone is saying it about each other, not to each other, and nothing is getting fixed that way.

The @smallbusinessassocofmichigan`s Women`s Entrepreneurial Fellowship met last week in our new space, and it was incredible to have this group of badass women back together under one roof.
Our focus this time around was planning for the future, whether that`s selling your business, handing it down, or just starting the conversation about it. We heard from the one and only Mindy Earley, who walked the cohort through the many different things to consider when succession planning; and Monica Gauthier joined us to talk about her journey selling her business - @groovydonuts.
The biggest takeaway... we really need to get this group together more often.
Applications are open for the next cohort. Apply at the link in bio.
