Agent Success Story: Jyoti Choudhari
Expand your Horizons – This past fall, Jyoti Choudhari with RE/MAX Results in Apple Valley, MN, was approached by a friend and invited to join a group of local Indian business owners who wanted to form an India Chamber of Commerce. After hearing more about the group and their goals, Jyoti was excited and eager to get involved. That was four months ago; since then Jyoti’s seen the group develop into the India Chamber of Commerce. It was launched on November 21st and inaugurated by Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty and Minnesota’s First Lady Mary Pawlenty. This has grown Jyoti’s business contacts and has opened new doors for her.
As Jyoti (3rd from the left) explains, the local Asian Indian community has several social, religious, professional, technological networking organizations but none serving the entrepreneurs. India Chamber of Commerce fills up this void. “It is a national organization and will serve as a conduit to existing and new business owners get established by providing expertise in various Industries. We’ll also host public functions every other month. These will promote business and provide value to local community members.”
Jyoti’s role with the India Chamber of Commerce has helped her business. “This has definitely opened up contacts for me. I’ve met private investors and new business entrepreneurs. And I feel my name recognition in the community is growing, my networking circle is bigger.” Her involvement has also given Jyoti a new title: Advisor of Women’s Business Council. “I am one of two women on the Women’s Business Council. I work to encourage women to become a part of an organization and help them to be successful in their business.”
As mentioned above, the India Chamber of Commerce holds bi-monthly public events – in fact, one is tonight. They’re hosting a workshop titled “Business Financing 2010,” which will cover various funding opportunities and will include a keynote speaker. For more information on this event and the India Chamber of Commerce visit their website at www.indiachamber.org.
