In an effort to boost awareness
of SCORE Bucks County and its no-cost business mentoring services, volunteers
with the local chapter of the national nonprofit organization are seeking
opportunities to speak to like-minded business organizations.
Tony Moore, the chapter’s
community outreach committee chair, has spoken to several area rotary clubs,
business associations and chamber of commerce groups as part of a campaign to
drive greater awareness. He is available to speak with other groups throughout
Bucks and eastern Montgomery counties as well.
“I or another SCORE mentor can
talk about virtually anything,” said Moore, a SCORE mentor of more than five
years. “I want to make sure SCORE is top of mind as far as helping people out.”
In addition to sharing insight
on SCORE and the mentoring services the group of former and current business
leaders provide to entrepreneurs, Moore often speaks in general terms about how
to start a business, as well as other business topics of interest relevant to
the group or organization.
Like the chapter’s other 70
mentors, he has decades of business experience under his belt. Before joining
SCORE, Moore worked in sales and marketing roles for more than 35 years with
Kraft, Sara Lee, Kellogg’s, and Keebler.
Moore views the speaking
engagements – and the drive for greater awareness of SCORE – as a win-win for
all. Entrepreneurs and new business owners often find a SCORE mentor who can
help with various aspects of starting and running a business. And the chapter connects
with experts interested in giving back through mentoring or serving as a
subject matter expert for the chapter’s webinars.
“There’s a volunteer group
that’s going to offer you free support,” Moore said. “These are all former entrepreneurs
or executives that have a ton of experience that they want to share with you.”
Moore will speak at an event for
the Newtown Business Association on Dec. 9 and hopes to add additional speaking
engagements to his calendar.
