For almost 25 years, I have been a member of the Greater Pittsburgh Business Connection. In addition to patronizing different services from our members during this time, I have reached out for these members’ advice and consulted with them for different projects/tasks for my business. Trust, integrity, and value are the top three reasons why GPBC is vital to my business. I am hard-pressed to name a local networking group with the kind of history, knowledge, and class of membership that GPBC has to offer!

Signs of Excellence, Inc. joined Greater Pittsburgh Business Connection in September 2015. I was informed soon after I joined that based on the results that previous members in my category had achieved, I could expect to see a modest increase in sales. That turned out to be an understatement. In less than six months, referrals from this group resulted in sales of over $20,000. At the same time, Signs of Excellence has purchased products and services from many of the group members at below market prices. And I have formed many friendships along the way. With nearly 60 business categories represented in the group, just about every business product or service that I need is there; and it’s great to do business with people you know and trust. The meetings are interesting, very helpful, fun and professional. I highly recommend GPBC.” 

I wanted to give a written testimonial to Sharon Battle of Sharon Battle Travel, who helped my husband and I plan our honeymoon. After analyzing our wants, needs, and interests, Sharon recommended a guided tour through Gate1 Travel. The trip completely exceeded our expectations. The tour was exactly what we were looking for; Not only was it well planned, but we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. The transportation, meals, hotels, and tours were all planned and ready upon arrival. It was the most carefree vacation I have ever been on. The pricing was competitive and the service was second to none. We are so thankful that we went through Sharon Battle Travel!
