Welcome to OBBA
The Ohio Business Brokers Association (OBBA) is a non-profit corporation founded in 1987. The term "Business Broker" includes individuals who are brokers, intermediaries, accountants, real estate agents and/or attorneys who provide a service that matches Business Owners with prospective Business Buyers. Business Brokers (aka "Business Intermediaries") work as consultants to Business Owners to find Buyers who are ready, willing and able to purchase the ownership of their business. Business Brokers also provide consulting to prospective Buyers who want to purchase a business that is a match for their skills, resources, interests and abilities.
The OBBA and this Internet-based multiple listing service serve as a communication network whereby profitable, on-going businesses that are currently for sale are listed by the Business Brokers so that information about the businesses for sale can be shared with prospective Buyers. The information is not complete; the network serves as an initial screening device to allow the prospective Buyer to know enough about the business opportunity so that, if interested, they would be motivated to phone or email the listing Business Broker, sign a Confidentiality Agreement and then obtain additional information.
OBBA members meet regularly to share information about businesses that are for sale. To attend one of our meetings, call one of the following chapters:

| What is possible with web technologies today, using and managing social media (rather than having IT manage YOU), and even how to handle the "dark side" of the internet (negative publicity).
In this day of social media and online interactions, your corporate presence on the web are more like your storefront or even your personal conversations than a electronic brochure or billboard.
"Website? What's the big deal about a website? It's just an electronic version of my marketing materials. You put it up, add it to your business cards and *boom*, you're on the web."
The session will focus on what is possible with web technologies today, using and managing social media (rather than having IT manage YOU), and even how to handle the "dark side" of the internet (negative publicity).
Agenda
• What can my website do for me?
• The right way to think about a website
