Monte Vista Chamber Business Spotlight-November 2020

The Monte Vista Chamber of Commerce Business Spotlight for November 2020. Featured in this three-part podcast are the November 2020 Chamber of Commerce Business of the Month, Sunflower Bank, with Senior Branch Manager Maria Aguilar and Regional Retail Manager Jessica Slattery. Then we have two featured businesses. The first is with the Owner and Manager of Colorado Seed, LLC, Terry Hillon. And wrapping up this podcast is the other November featured business, ABC Daycare, with owners Joana and Roger Herrera. Please listen as Maria, Jessica, Terry, Joana and Roger discuss their unique roles, what they offer to the community, how they’ve dealt with COVID-19, funny stories, how important it is to support your local chamber, addressing preconceived notions, where they see our area in the future and so much more.

Every month we publish a podcast for the Monte Vista Chamber of Commerce. Starting with this podcast, we’re changing up the format just a bit. Over the past year and a half, we’ve introduced all of our chamber officers, employees and directors to you. Going forward, we’ll be featuring three businesses or organizations in each podcast, the Chamber Business of the Month and two additional Chamber Member businesses. We’re now in our second year working with the Monte Vista Chamber of Commerce and we thank them and all of the wonderful businesses and people we have had the opportunity to work with so far. We’re excited to bring you another year of interviews with the movers and shakers in our area.
