HOW IS SCOTT DIFFERENT THAN OTHER SPEAKERS?


Scott combines motivation and humor with practical strategies


He connects with and is relatable to the audience


He believes in servant leadership


He is not afraid to share his personal failures and shortcomings


The insights from his real-world sales, business and management experience make his stories relevant


Scott CARES that you “get it” and will not leave until you do 


So let's hear what he has to say, laugh a little, eat and drink a little and come away feeling a little better than we did walking in!

TOOTING OUR TOURISM HORN!

Once in a while I like to show you what you might not see - the Tourism arm of the Chamber! We promote Buffalo year-round from the Kite Festival to our shopping, to our lakes/parks, to our Art & Craft Festival to our orchards. We are blessed to live here and we want others to experience it too!


Below is an ad in the Minnesota Monthly magazine. Below that is an ad in the Explore Minnesota e-newsletter and finally we are in the MSP magazine as well!

We also have an ad in the Minneapolis/St. Paul magazine - see the link below - page 48! A great local magazine that has all sorts of great info regarding metro businesses and things to do in our area!

BUFFALO CHAMBER DIRECTORY/COMMUNITY RESOURCE GUIDE 2025


Hard to believe it's time to design another Guide, but yes, we will start working on it now - which means you will hear from a Prime Advertising Sales Rep soon regarding ad placement. We distribute directly to every home/apartment and business in the Buffalo, Hanover, Montrose and Rockford area along with sending it out to new homeowners to those areas each month! There is no better way to get in front of that many eyes as a yearlong resource! Below are the ad rates. If you have any great photos of life/business happenings in Buffalo - please send them my way!

WANT TO BE MORE INVOLVED?


As we start to look to the new year, there are always opportunities to get more involved with the Chamber whether it's volunteering at events or serving on the Board. If you are looking to get more involved, let me know! Would be happy to share what opportunities we have!

AMBASSADORS ON THE MOVE

BALANCING THE BOOKS

5 Hwy 55

763-682-3238

www.btbtaxmn.com


We met with, owner, Annette McClellan after her busy season, though as a bookkeeper for many and a payroll manager for over 30 clients, there is never a dull moment! Annette has served most of her clients for over 20 years, in Buffalo since 2015, in her new location (by Moon Donuts) since 2022.


She likes to help people looking to open a small business - from what they need to do legally, to sharing the difference between an LLC and S-Corp. She also likes to make sure people understand their tax return. She even has one staff person who is fluent in Spanish to help Spanish speaking people understand.


Annette has several PT employees who help her ongoing and during tax season with personal and business tax returns and payroll. During peak tax season they are open 8 to 8 Monday through Friday and 8 to 5 on Saturdays. Now/off peak, the office is open Tuesday through Thursday from 9 to 4.


If you are in need of a good tax person who specializes in small business, give Balancing the Books a call. Annette and her staff will be ready to help!


Below are Chamber Ambassadors Andrew Agrimson/Insurance Center of Buffalo, Taylor Gronau/City of Buffalo, staff Bridget, Annette, Chamber Ambassadors April Murch/FCC and Cheree' Hoese/CRS.

TWO GREAT OPPORTUNITIES AT THE BUFFALO PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH!

UPS HELPING UPS


Laural Kenney wants to let the businesses know that if they are having trouble getting their UPS shipments, it's because there are temporary drivers for at least the DT route. If you are having issues, she is offering that you can have your shipments dropped off at her Granny & Grandpa's/UPS store for you to pick up. If you want to do that just call her at 763-218-8204. Thanks Laural!
