VISITOR PROGRAM
Visit an IBDEA member’s business and learn. You may see good ideas, or you may see pitfalls in someone else’s business that you can avoid. Spending time at someone else’s business is a way to make a friend and business advisor all in one. The better you know someone, the more open you can be with questions and ideas that you may have. To register for the Visitor Program, call IBDEA at 877-40-IBDEA (42332).
