It was exciting having the privilege of hosting Mayor Sandy Stimpson's latest stop on his Meet Mobile Small Business Tour! In a rollercoaster ride of events, Laura Byrne calls from the Mayor's Office at 2:40p, with the disappointing news that the Mayor would not be able to make it due to an emergency Crime Prevention meeting that had been called. However, at 2:55p, Laura calls back saying that "the Mayor is on his way!" That's the level of dedication that this city has displayed as it relates to their commitment to small businesses.

The Mayor stepped right in and showed a great level of interest in the latest technology that Easy Ads has developed. He shared his thoughts on how this technology will help to enhance the experience that tourists will have when visiting the city of Mobile. Before departing, he gladly received an Easy Ads Concierge Tshirt, then rode off into the sunset to revert his energy back towards the issues of our city.

Special guests like Liz Burdick, of A&R Hospitality, continued to listen in with great anticipation, as her and her staff contemplate a partnership with Easy Ads. Leslie Hayes, General Manager of the new Hilton Garden Inn, that's scheduled to open in December 2016, asked some very in depth questions to better understand how the digital directory could improve her hotel property. With great zeal and confidence, Brainstorm Team members such as Craig Davis (McKibbon Management), Tracy Jones (Nick Patel Properties), and Sandy Caruso (Hilton Properties of Daphne), did an excellent job of responding and giving testimonies of how the system has greatly contributed to their guests experiences.

A BIG 'Thank You' to all of you who attended and made this event a success!!
