Leads Groups
Are you interested in gaining trusted relationships with other businesses in the Athens Community? Leads Groups are for you!
The goal of a Leads Group is to share leads and generate business opportunities as well as develop trusted relationships through the networking process. Only one business from each sector can be represented in each group (e.g one banker, one realtor, one insurance company, etc.) so there is no competition within each group. A single company may not have representation in multiple leads groups to create opportunity for all members to join.
If you are interested in chairing a new group or would like to join an existing group, please email marissa@athensga.com.
