[VIDEO] Business After LeBron

The Cleveland economy follows LeBron James – when he left for Miami, local business owners felt the decline in sales. As LeBron leaves for Los Angeles, local businesses are concerned about the LeBron effect. What will happen to the local economy come October? What are some strategies local business owners can use to keep foot traffic high? A panel of industry experts will weighed in on keeping the Cleveland economy stable in the absence of LeBron James at our September 26 Networking Luncheon.
