internship on 9/24/2007

Today was a very interesting day, I found out that I was going to become a sales rep, but on the other hand I learned that due to some ownership problems I may not have an internship. I was given an assignment by my supervisor to find local businesses that might be interested in sponsoring the Guard. This is a slight challenge for me due to the fact that I am not from around here and I do not know many businesses other than those right around school. But I did find a solution to my problem, I started by looking in the local papers, like the "Up & Coming Weekly" to get a drift of what type of businesses I was surrounded by. My next step is to get a local phone book and look at all the businesses and call them to arrange meetings and try and cut a deal. That is the ULTIMATE Goal, to make money. When the organization makes money I make money.
