dec bizvtr 2014

On Cyber Monday I was reminded ofa Canada Post television ad promotingonline mail order shopping and how“soon it will be the way many of usshop for just about everything”.If you browse through business arti-

cles or flip through the news channels,many forms of media are talkingabout traditional retail being in a crisisas if we will soon see an ‘end’ to con-ventional brick and mortar shopping.It’s true, Statistics Canada reported

that more than $136 billion worth ofgoods and services were sold over theInternet in 2013 by Canadian busi-nesses, up from $122 billion the yearbefore. Approximately 61% of thesales came from the wholesale trade,manufacturing and retail industries.And while the stats for 2014 were notyet available at the time of this article,2013 was the largest Canadian CyberMonday yet.However, many consumers consider

shopping an enjoyable pastime. It is anexperience that activates the sensesand the desire to be social. Drive byany shopping mall over the next fewweeks and I think you will agree thatmany customers still make the choiceto travel to their local retail businesses.“Online shopping is happening–but

it doesn’t mean the brick and mortarwill disappear,” says MartyWilliams,Executive Director for the DowntownGuelph Business Association.“Fundamentally people are social. Itgoes against our human nature to iso-late ourselves.We want to go out toshop, we want something to do, some-where to go–for a coffee, to drop intothe stores, get a haircut, or pop intothe library and pick up a book.”“The ability to purchase groceries

online has been an option for close to15 years, however the percent of gro-ceries purchased online is actuallysmall, people still continue to groceryshop. Often you may not know whatyou want until you go out–you wantto choose by the smell, the feel and the

look of the products.”The most popular products pur-

chased online by Canadians as postedon canadiansinternet.com are music(61%), software (57%) and PC’s(47%), with event tickets and videogames both at 41% and books at 35%.“Those products that are strictly

driven by price, when you know exact-ly what you want and what brand, ifthose products can be delivered toyour home for less than going out andpicking them up–those are the prod-ucts that may be replaced by onlineshopping,” addsWilliams. “Howeverpersonally, if I am buying a new phoneI want someone to tell me about thefeatures of the phone and show mehow it works. I don’t want to readabout it.”A recentHoliday Retail Outlook

Report by Deloitte actually shows thatnearly 80% of shoppers across Canadaare concerned about privacy breachesand almost 50% of shoppers havechanged their online shopping habitsas a result.“I feel the death of brick and mortar

businesses is greatly exaggerated.Wecan all eat at home as well, but wedon’t. There is a real human need tobe out and to be social. And that

includes shopping,” saysWilliams.“Brick and mortar shops in our areahave unique offerings and great serv-ice that make you want to visit them.It is comparable to how salons areflourishing because you build a rela-tionship with your hair stylist and youwant to return because they know youand know your tastes.”With the continued escalated use of

technology in all forms also comes theconsumer who reads their books on aKindle or a smart phone, which raisesthe question as to the need of ourpublic libraries. Like the act of shop-ping, libraries are a destination–aplace to go and browse or to get helpon various topics.A visit to the Annual Giant Book

Sale organized by The Friends of theGuelph Public Library will squash anydoubt as to whether people still readbooks. The three-day sale, which ranin October, opened Friday eveningwith 78,000 books and items.With more than 7,000 enthusiastic

shoppers, volunteers sold nearly 80%of the inventory and grossed almost$100,000–an impressive amount whenmany books were priced at one andtwo dollars.“The demise of the library is

nowhere in the foreseeable future sim-ply because it is too important to thecommunity and has way too much tooffer,” says Steven Kraft, CEO of theGuelph Public Library. “Libraries con-nect communities, they support life-long learning, and they promote eco-nomic well-being. Libraries help peoplelearn new skills, assist job-seekers, pro-vide resources for growing small busi-nesses, and they help people make themost of their income.”The public library is actually the most

used recreational facility in the City ofGuelph, loaning 2,144,004 items(books, DVDs, magazines, e-books, etc)in 2013. On average, 1,500 people gothrough the doors of the Main Libraryevery day. Throughout the year a totalof 39,269 people attended the 1,675offered programs.“Guelph needs a newMain Library

because the current building doesn’tmeet the needs of the expanding anddiverse population,” adds Kraft. “Weneed a facility that will provide a widerange of services from grandparents tograndkids, plus a facility that canaccommodate a proper archives sectionto preserve the City’s history. Thecurrent facility is 50 years old and is nolonger cost-effective – cont’d on page 3

Many of us left high school with no idea what wewanted to do when we grew up and consequentlyfollowed windy, and often rough, pathways to ourcurrent career destinations. Imagine a worldwhere students from Kindergarten to grade 12have access to various programs that provide con-siderable opportunities to reflect on who they areas people with gifts and preferences, explore theopportunities available, and put together a planfor achieving their career goals? As an employer,consider the impact that this kind of specific,focused vision will have on your organizationwhen you are recruiting employees. Students inthis generation aremotivated to succeed orwork inan area that they have clearly planned early in theiryoung lives.As parents, consider the impact of thiskind of self-awareness when launching your son ordaughter into theworld of post-secondary educa-tion and other training programs; confidence inyour child’s career choice and pathway is increasingand alleviatesmuch of the concern for discernmentoncemore common among young people.Preparing our students for post-secondary path-

way options is a priority forWellington CatholicDistrict School Board. In response to theMinistryof Education Creating Pathways to Success Policy (CPS),we are enhancing opportunities for students todevelopmore effective career and life planning.Students will leave high school better prepared toanswer key questions that guide successful transi-tions for individuals to post-secondary destina-tions.All secondary students have the option of a co-

operative education course where they canexpand and refine knowledge learned in a coursedelivered in a classroom setting and at the sametime“test drive” a career. Success is when a stu-dent learns the co-op experience confirms acareer pathway, opens up new options throughexposure to the workplace or when a student

learns the specific pathway is not at all a goodmatch for their future. Some of these students willhave skilled trade co-op placements that lead toan apprenticeship as part of the Ontario YouthApprenticeship Program.Wellington Catholicoffers Specialist High Skills Programs where stu-dents can focus their learning to prepare for careerpathways in one of eight sectors: Business,Construction, Environment,Health &Wellness (afood and fitness focus), Information&Communication Technology (graphics or engi-neering focus)Manufacturing,Non Profit, orTransportation. Students in both elementary andsecondary schools participate in Skills Canadacompetitions.Dual Credit programs offer studentsa chance to take a college course that counts bothat the college and as an elective toward their highschool diploma.During Catholic EducationWeek,we encourage students to explore a career duringTry on a Career Day. But we cannot do this alone.Wellington Catholic welcomes business partners

to help students: develop essential skills needed inthe workplace; become aware of the myriad ofcareer opportunities and choice available; andidentify pathways where there will be greatestdemand for workers as they leave high-school.You can help by finding meaningful opportunitiesfor co-operative education placements or short-term experiential learning within your organiza-tion, volunteering to sit on a Specialist High SkillsMajor or other program advisory team, offeringtours of your organization, agree to be guestspeaker in a classroom, participating in Try on aCareer Day, sponsoring school or board basedactivity, or finding other creative ways your organ-izationmay want to be involved.

Whether we like it or not, certain times of yearpresent more challenges and stress than others.Perhaps our goal should not be to live withoutstress but rather to balance our stress levels andresponses. “Holiday Stress”…here we go again.Our best defense at this time of year is prepara-tion. This includes understanding what influ-ences stress levels during the holidays and identi-fying ways to cope.Do you know what your triggers are? Holiday

celebrations mean pressure for most of us. Nomatter how hard we try to enjoy the season, withso much to do and not enough time, some of uscan get caught up in the chaos of the holidays.There are ways to have a simpler holiday, withfewer hassles: avoid unrealistic expectations,minimize extra demands, prioritize responsibili-ties, and beware of taking on financial demandsthat will cause more stress later.Have a financial plan. Develop a budget, know

your spending limit and stick to it! Compareprices and pare down your shopping list. “NoShopping Required” gift ideas include tickets,photographs, gift certificates, catalogue or on-line shopping, babysitting, food and beverages, orgift baskets or flowers.Signs that you are “stressed” include irritability,

poor sleep, weight gain orloss, feeling tense withincreased muscle aches andpains, or feeling over-whelmed. Develop a realisticperspective with realisticexpectations of the holidays.Remember that the holiday season is only a shorttime of the year. Decide what’s most meaningfuland don’t push yourself to exhaustion.Do you have realistic expectations? There arecoping mechanisms you can try. Delegate someof your responsibilities. Do not give in to allrequests and learn to say “no”with confidence.Try NOT to do it all. Keeping stress in balancemight include breathing exercises, meditation,yoga, or Tai Chi, to name a few.Be Flexible. Email Christmas cards. Don’t travelout of guilt. Choose traditions that are meaning-ful and worth keeping. Remember to always eatwell, exercise, drink plenty of water and get lotsof rest, but most of all have a Happy HolidaySeason!

As 2014 winds down the inevitable task of filing onesannual tax return looms in the not too distant future.Taxpayers and those in business know that income taxhas to be paid, but, having said that one would prefer topay as little as possible. In that regard I have prepared alist of considerations for helping out your bottom linethis coming spring.1. Pay your professional fees, union dues, alimony ormaintenance payments, safety deposit box cost andinvestment counsel fees prior to the year-end

2. If you plan to enroll your child in activity programs in2015 you can obtain a tax credit this year if paid priorto December 31. If you have reached your 2014maxi-mum, defer the payment to 2015, as the credit can’t becarried forward.

3. If you have a segregated fund RRSP that is of the guar-

anteedminimumwithdrawal typemake your contri-bution before year-end.Not only will you get yourdeduction youwill receive contractual notionalincrease in the income base amount.

4. If you have a favourite charity you are thinking of help-ing, make yourmonetary contribution beforeDecember 31. If neither you nor your spouse hasclaimed the donation tax credit in the five precedingtax years youwill be eligible for the Federal First TimeDonors super credit on donations up to $1000. If youhave stocks that have increased in value one can donatethem to a charity before year-end and there will be nocapital gains tax on the gain.As well you will receive adonation receipt for the full market value of the giftedshares.Unlike tax loss selling the settlement date for thetransaction is not a factor.

5. For those investors who, unfortu-nately, may have accrued capitallosses onemight want to sell theshares before year-end. The real-ized losses can be used to offsetcapital gains earned in 2014, can be carried forwardindefinitely or carried back to the three previous taxyears. It is noteworthy tomention that the settlementdate for the trademust occur in 2014,whichmeans thetrade date cannot be later thanDecember 24.

6.A sole proprietor, business partnership or rental prop-erty owner shouldmake purchases of equipment orsupplies before year-end.This will result in either addi-tional write offs for direct costs or additional CapitalCost Allowance (at the half year rate) on capital expen-ditures such as vehicles or equipment.

Preplanning

Pre-arranging one's own funeral is now widelypracticed across Canada. Gilbert MacIntyre & Son havebeen helping individuals and families with funeralprearrangements for almost 80 years. If you would liketo make an appointment to discuss prearrangements,please contact us. Or, if you like, you can prearrangeyour funeral online. You will be asked the same basicquestions you would in a one-on-one prearrangementmeeting; but within the "comfort" of your own lifestyle.Our experience in dealing with prearranging funeralshas lead to the development of the GILBERTMACINTYRE & SON TRUST PLAN for those who wish topre-pay their funeral expenses.

The GILBERT MACINTYRE & SON TRUST PLAN retainsall the advantages of the pre-arranged funeral, but goesfurther with respect to the financial advantages.

· The GILBERT MACINTYRE & SON TRUST PLAN ishedge against inflation. The cost of the funeral willnever increase, no matter how long it is before thefuneral services are required.

· Pre-payment reduces the financial demands on thesurvivors. Costs will be paid out of income now,rather than from much needed funds of the estate.

· Like a paid-up life insurance policy, this plan is ofimmediate and far-reaching benefit to survivors.

· Interest on funds held in a GILBERT MACINTYRE &SON TRUST PLAN is tax free.

· The GGILBERT MACINTYRE & SON TRUST PLAN maybe purchased on a convenient time payment plan.Usually the prearrangment service is entirely paid forby the time it is needed, thereby relieving the familyof expense at the time of the funeral.

· Money is held in trust and fully refundable any time.

The GILBERT MACINTYRE & SON TRUST PLAN isdesigned to comply with all regulations under theFuneral Services Act of Ontario and is fully insured.

75 Years–2008

If you’re anything likeme, you like to save abuck.My crave to save has gotten such that Irarely pay full price for anything.The trickything is that sometimes the lowest price isn’tthe cheapest way to go at all!I was recently shopping online andwas

using avery pop-ular site. Isearchedfor a spe-cific prod-uct andsaw avariety of“new”optionsand avariety of“used”options. Igravitatedtowardsthecheapestnew item

and started clickingmyway through the pur-chase.My itemwas $74.99 and the cheapestshipping option was $54! Final price formycheap product was $128.99. If I wasn’t payingattention, I would’vemissed out on the$97.99 product option that included freeshipping. This situationmademe thinkabout a truth that I run into on a daily basisinmy own business–there is no such thingas free.My business is to sell currency in all forms.

Wire transfers are a service that I sell andthere is a fee attached to this service.Muchlike the shipping fee, no one wants to pay thisfee – but again similar to the shipping fee, thetruth is that there is a cost associated withtransmitting the funds. So, the online shop-ping site has two choices: they can advertise alow price and show the cost of shipping as anadditional fee OR they can incorporate thisshipping fee and inflate their sale price.Another focus of my business is saving time

for clients–and this premise too often leadsme astray online.Convinced that I don’t havethe time to shop, I have often pointed andclickedmyway through clothing purchases,

footwear purchases andcosmetics. If I can get pastthe cost of shipping, thewaste of time that I havespent with online shop-ping is completely contradictory to what youaim for with online shopping.Hours spentstaring at a screen is then followed by days orweeks of waiting for the product, and thensadly a trip to the original store that I wasavoiding with the annoying process ofreturning the products that don’t fit or don’twork.A recent survey conducted in the UKshows that 45% of online Christmas shop-pers are one step ahead of me: these shopperspoint and click but choose to pick up theirproducts at the store. They save the shippingcosts, avoid the long wait of delivery to theirhome and have the ability to touch/feel andtry on the products when they collect theirorder. Returns can be done on the spot andwasted trips to return product after-the-factare avoided.Source: econsultancy.com

Local Rotary Group gives back to the communityOn Tuesday Dec.2, the Rotary Club of Guelph-Trillium took part in “GuelphGives”.

RLB LLP Wins Top 50 Employer Award in CanadaThroughout its 60-year history, RLB LLP has had one goal inmind–to be the best regional accounting firm in Ontario.Withoffices in Fergus, Guelph and Kitchener-Waterloo, they have built aculture of continuous learning and improvement, where teammembers feel empowered to grow and develop, working togetherto serve the holistic needs of their clients. They have a “peoplecount”philosophy and value everyone’s opinions.And now theycan prove it.RLB LLP has just been recognized as one of the 50 Best Small and

Medium Employers in Canada. The Best Employers in CanadaStudy is an annual overview of employers who excel at engagingtheir employees.“We are so proud of our team for making this happen,” said Bill

Koornstra,Managing Partner,“We are always focusing on the per-

sonal and professional development of our staff, and so we are verypleased to be recognized this way. This really is something thateveryone on our team can take pride in”.Applying for the Best Employer Award is a significant undertak-

ing and demands input from staff across the organization.Employee perspectives are measured across all levels of theorganization, giving a realistic andmulti-dimensional picture ofthe current state of employee engagement. The report also clearlyidentifies areas of improvement.RLB LLP first applied for the award in 2013.“Having just missed

the list last year, we reviewed the feedback and focused on the keyareas that required improvement,” said Crystal Dunlop, Directorof Human Resources.“Over the year we held internal focus groupsand ensured that our teammembers’ voices were heard.Making

this list wasn’t something we were doing just for the sake of doingso.We wanted to make this list because we knew it would stretchour team to be better and we know that a happy and engaged teamtranslates to happy and engaged clients.”Generally it takes companies multiple years to make the list and

RLB LLPmade the list the second time they applied–not a smallfeat! An accounting firm has never been recognized on the list thisquickly.RLB LLP is proud of their accomplishment but will not rest there.“We have already identified items we should work on for our nextsubmission,” commented Bill Koornstra.“This award is just anoth-er step on our journey of being the best employer we can be.”

Outstanding response to Fusion Homes’ Grand Opening of The MetalworksFusion Homes held its Grand Opening for regis-trants of TheMetalworks, Guelph’s new urbanvillage, on Saturday, November 15, 2014. Doorsopened early at 8:15 a.m. to accommodate thosewho had camped out overnight and lined upearly to get first choice of suites. The line-up con-tinued outside the office and remained constantthroughout the morning. By early afternoon thephase one tower was 50% sold out. Pricing of thetower suites started from the 190s. Over 250residents of Guelph and the surrounding areawelcomed TheMetalworks on opening day.The newly constructed sales office located at 5

Arthur St South was built with the use of salvagedmaterials from the site demonstrating its historicpast. Interested purchasers gathered around theseven-foot scale model of TheMetalworks devel-opment, which is situated between the SpeedRiver with a 50-foot wide RiverWalk and ArthurStreet.The development will be comprised of five phas-

es, with phase one consisting of 114 suites andfive penthouse units in the 10 story tower, and 14townhouses. Of those townhouses, six of themwill be overlooking the Speed River and beknown as the River Lofts. The townhouses andpenthouses are anticipated to be released inFebruary 2015. The move-in date for phase one isexpected to be late 2016.TheMetalworks development has garneredmore interest than any other development FusionHomes has had in the past. The nearly $300million, 8-acre, 5-phase master-planned develop-ment is situated in historic downtown Guelph.The 600-plus units at this transit-friendly, envi-ronmentally sensitive urban village will be builtover a five to 10 year horizon.Outstanding fea-tures of this new community include: the revital-ization of the former industrial lands once ownedbyW.C.Wood Company Limited, a freezer man-ufacturer, to create a vibrant new live/workdowntown destination; over 2.5 acres of the site

dedicated to new green space; a 50-foot wideRiverWalk enhancing connectivity to the SpeedRiver; and up to 30,000 square feet of proposedretail/commercial space. Phase one will be com-pleted with over 2,500 square feet of inspiredindoor residential amenities, complete with a stateof the art fitness centre, a stylish EntertainmentRoom open to a courtyard with barbeque area, awelcoming Lobby and Pet Spa. The vision for thedevelopment is a self-sustained village withrestaurants and shops. This historic site at 5Arthur Street South is steps away fromwhere thecity was founded, and once housed a grist mill, adistillery, and foundries. Now, this once prolificsite of industry will be transformed into adynamic community filled with culture and cre-ativity.The architecture of the original heritage build-

ing will meld with the sleek modern simplicity ofstylish condos and townhomes. It’s a uniqueurban lifestyle–right in the heart of the city. LikeTheMetalworks at 5 Arthur Street South, FusionHomes has a long and proud history.Years ago,Chief Executive Officer Lee Piccoli foundedFusion Homes to offer the highest levels of serv-

ice, reliability and integrity. In a booming indus-try of cost competitors, his vision of buildingsuperior homes without sacrificing quality orservice stood out. It’s these values that havehelped Fusion grow into the leader it is today. Todate, Fusion Homes has built thousands of homesin five cities throughout Ontario, and has earnedan unprecedented five Tarion Awards ofExcellence for Customer Satisfaction.Fusion Homes goes above and beyond for each

and every client, which means making sure eachstep of the home-building process is as stress-free,transparent and simple as possible.While thecompany hangs their hat on personalized service,they also know it is important to understand thebigger picture. This has never beenmore relevantthan at 5 Arthur Street South. It’s a historic siteGuelph holds close to its heart, so extra care hasbeen taken to collaborate with the communityand the City of Guelph to develop a vision thatpays homage to its history while building anamazing future.For more information on TheMetalworks,

The StrongerWorkplaces for a Stronger EconomyAct (Bill 18) receivedroyal assent onNovember 20, 2014, amending five different labourand employment statutes inOntario.The Employment Standards Act,the Labour Relations Act, theOccupational Health and Safety Act, theWorkplace Safety and Insurance Act, and the Employment Protection forForeign Nationals Actwere all amended. There are various dates inwhich the changes will come into force.Ontario employers shouldreview the changes to ensure their respective workplace policies andpractices are not in violation of the newworkplace laws.One change which received particularmedia attention was with

respect to theminimumwage rate.OnOctober 1, 2015, and everyyear thereafter, theminimumwage will be adjusted based on theConsumer Price Index.Other notable changes to the EmploymentStandards Act include the removal of the current $10,000.00 cap onwage orders and the increase for claims of unpaid wages from the cur-rent sixmonths to two years. The effect of these changes will be to

allowmuch larger wage claims to be dealt with through themecha-nism outlined by the Employment Standards Act.Also of note is thatemployers will be required to provide each employee with a copy ofthemost recent poster regarding worker rights published by theMinistry of Labour within 30 days of the amendment coming intoforce or of a new employee’s commencement.TheAct alsomade significant changes to the rules regarding tempo-

rary work agencies. Companies providing temporary workers andtheir clients will be jointly and severally liable for any unpaid wagesowing to the employee. TheAct also amends theWorkplace Safety andInsurance Act to shift the full cost of a resulting compensation claimfrom the temporary help agency onto the client.Organizationsmaywant to rethink the use of temporary workers given the potential lia-bility and financial repercussions.The amendments also expanded the definition of "worker" under

theOccupational Health and Safety Act.The definition of "worker"

now includes: secondary school students in work experienceprograms; a personwho provides unpaid work or services under aprogram by a college, university or other post-secondary institution; apersonwho receives training but is not yet an employee under theEmployment Standards Act; and other persons who performwork orsupply services withoutmonetary compensation. The expanded defi-nition came into force onNovember 20, 2014, resulting in immediateincreased liability for employers.The above noted amendments are only a few of themany changes to

the five noted labour and employment statutes.A full review of thechanges is beyond the scope of this article. Employers should reviewthe amendments and assess how the changes will impact theirorganization.Evan Campbell is an Associate in the Guelph office of Miller Thomson LLP working in the areasof employment law and litigation. 519-780-4634 or [email protected]

The Business of Downtown

by Marty Williams, Executive Director, Downtown GuelphBusiness Association

The power of data

For Christmas this year I am asking Santafor one special thing: data. Lots and lots ofreal, solid, defensible data would bring asong to my heart and make me a veryhappy guy. Here’s why.I often find myself in conversations with

Guelphites from across the city who, whenthey find out my job title, ask me howDowntown Guelph is doing economically.But because I don’t know what people arespending I always answer the same way: Ireally can’t say for sure. I can’t claim withany certainty that we are trending up,down, or sideways. Oh sure, I can see signsof progress. We have lots of investments inbusinesses and buildings; we have newretail and restaurant offerings, low store-front vacancy rates, high demand for park-ing permits, and a solid increase in theassessment value. But there is no hard dataat hand, no spending information to givethe question a solid answer.This is not the case in a mall or power

centre. With a single property owner, theyknow their sales, there is a set formula forretail category distribution, and locationsare designed to produce maximum spend-ing. They can shuffle stores, insert newones and shut down under performers.They also know how many people are visit-ing, how long they stay, and how muchthey are spending by demographic type.As is the case with historic downtowns

everywhere, in Downtown Guelph we havenone of those tools. Instead, we have multi-ple ownership positions competing witheach other to find a tenant and there is noset limit for the number of shoe stores orcoffee shops. The mix is more “come whatmay” than anything resembling a masterplan. And while sales data may be the bestmeasure of economic health, all we have togo on is anecdotal evidence. Sometimesbusiness people choose to tell me things aretrending up or down. “We’re having a goodyear” or “We’re down from where we were”is about the extent of it. So that, and the

evidence I can glean from observations list-ed above, is about all I have to answer thequestion of how Downtown is doing.And there the story might end, except

that there are some promising new toolsthat downtown districts have been employ-ing to count people, bikes, and cars as astarting point to attempt to measure eco-nomic health. In Toronto, the DowntownYonge Business Improvement Area hasbeen employing street post mounted coun-ters to better understand who is using thearea and when. (Check outwww.downtownyonge.com under the tab“Doing Business Here.”) It is informationthat they provide to prospective tenantsand it is a powerful sales tool. When youknow how many people are going to passby your storefront on any given day (andtime of day) you will have some confidencethat as long as you have something thosepeople want, your store will be successful.They can also see the impact of specialevents, weather (good and bad), street clo-sures or road reconstruction.In some places they have taken what

Downtown Yonge uses a step further. Theyhave been able to convince enough retailersto share sales data (with a secure, un-attrib-utable, third-party solution that aggregatesthe data into generalized reports) and cannow analyze sales data as it relates to car,bike and pedestrian counts (as well asweather, events, construction, etc.).We are currently working with the

City to investigate the possibility of count-ing cars, bikes, and pedestrians inDowntown Guelph. I think it’s a goodplace to start.It’s important that we measure these

things so we know what and where toinvest. So we can make a case for businessattraction. So we can measure the effect ofevents and activities. So we aren’t simplyreading the tealeaves and hoping forthe best.
