News from the Ontario Chamber of Commerce
 
The OCC is seeking your help understanding how businesses feel about red tape in the province.

The government has committed to decreasing the red tape burden on business, but requires clear input from the business community in order to translate this commitment into noticeable changes. Right now the majority of businesses across the province continue to be negatively impacted by obstructive government regulations.

Au Courant Card
Darcy Rezac's Positive Networking Tip of the Week

Au courant is a fancy way of saying up-to-date so maybe it's time to look at your business card and see if it needs to be refreshed.

 "A study by Edelman Public Relations found that 39% of the respondents said they were more likely to purchase the product of a company they perceive to be socially and environmentally responsible."
Traffic Marketing and Design

At the minimum, try to use recycled paper for your cards and marketing materials and display the appropriate "recycled" logo. Don't forget to make sure the font size is big enough for someone to read at a networking event (lighting is usually poor) and that your card works in a Card Scanner or with an iPhone scanner app.
