Tersh talks with Liz Saxton, Founder & President of the Southern Marketing Team!

"The best bang for your buck, so to speak, is Buy local Savannah. First and foremost, I believe in it, I use it, I'm there, I'm active. I'm also on the board there. I serve with you there, Tersh. But with any networking that you do, no matter whether it's with an organization or not, you're going to get out whatever you choose to put in. So if you don't attend, you're not going to see the benefit of it. You know, if you're constantly waiting for someone to hold your hand, that's not a good initiative. You've got to be able to step outside of your comfort zone. It's uncomfortable for everyone, but it's a situation where that's how you're going to grow one as a business person." -Liz Saxton
