Our veterans are always at the forefront of our thoughts at Sears Insurance. I come from a family that is steeped in military service in all branches and some that are currently serving. You will notice, even our website is red, white and blue. Myself and a friend, Suzanne Hull, “The Get It Done Girl” with Contemporary Business Solutions are taking an old idea, resurrecting it, and continuing it for the sake of some good networking without membership fees, attendance requirements or dues. We are calling this, Breakfast, Business & More and it has a rich history.

Approximately 15 years ago, the Des Moines Breakfast, Business & More was formed. The breakfast networking event was originally hosted by the Iowa National Guard during Desert Storm. The Small Business Administration (SBA) stepped up wen the Guard had to relinquish its hosting responsibilities and continues to be active. The SBA was then joined by the Des Moines SCORE Chapter.

Breakfast, Business & More’s original mission was to assist small businesses by providing a forum that would bring small business owners together and enable them to network and to exchange opportunities. In this way, they could gain a better understanding of each other’s products and services which would enhance the profitability of their respective businesses. Later, purchasing agents and representatives from big business and government were invited to attend meetings.

We will be hosting quarterly networking events and providing each of you with a registrant list including name, business name and email address which makes follow-up easy! Your time is extremely valuable; that’s why you can expect our events to keep to the following schedule:

• 8:00am – 8:15am: Register, grab breakfast and COFFEE!
• 8:15am – 8:45am: Each individual introduces themselves to the large group with their name and the name of their business.
  8:45am – 9am: Open Networking

Sears Insurance has life insurance available to all markets, but we have special offerings for our veterans. The underwriting is nil, the price is affordable and we feel that anyone serving our country should review their life insurance for the sake of all the families that are standing proudly behind them.
