WHAT LEADERS SAY ABOUT Business Plus

“Most business leaders understand that the success of their business in largely dependent on the economy, but they don’t think they can do much to affect the economic activity. Business Plus is a vehicle for business leaders to take a proactive approach to investing in the Magic Valley economy. We all benefit from the effects of a vibrant and healthy local economy.”

– Jason Meyerhoeffer, First Federal Bank

“As a realtor, I help families who want to relocate to Southern Idaho. Without a vibrant economy, it would be difficult to help these families buy a new home here. Because the economy in our region has been so successful over the past 20+ years, we are able to attract people to come to the area and find good employment opportunities. This is what creates an exceptional quality of life – good paying jobs, houses to buy, and things to do in our community.”

– Cindy Collins, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Idaho Homes & Properties

“We need to increase the number of investors in Business Plus – doing so will increase the number of jobs for our kids and grandchildren. It will increase the number of employees we have to choose from to hire for our businesses. Investing and getting others to invest in Business Plus is good business for your company, community, family and friends and will ensure a bright future for our region here in Idaho.”
