About WEEA
Since 1981 the West End Executives’ Association has brought local business professionals together to build trusted relationships, exchange quality referrals, and support one another’s continued success.
Business Relationships Built to Last
WEEA is a professional business organization built around relationships, trust, and mutual support.
Our members represent a wide range of local businesses and professional services, but they share a common goal: to help one another grow by building meaningful connections and creating quality referral opportunities.
Through consistent participation and regular interaction, members gain a stronger understanding of one another’s businesses, services, and ideal customers. That familiarity helps create the trust necessary for referrals to become more thoughtful, relevant, and valuable.
WEEA is more than a place to exchange business cards. It is a community of professionals who invest in long-term relationships and support one another’s continued success.
Our Purpose
To exchange good business referrals that produce continuing and expanding business success, individually and collectively.
How WEEA Works
Build Relationships
Members meet regularly, connect with one another, and develop a deeper understanding of the businesses represented within the organization.
Exchange Referrals
By knowing and trusting fellow members, WEEA professionals are better positioned to connect customers, colleagues, friends, and business contacts with businesses they confidently recommend.
Grow Together
WEEA is built on the belief that stronger professional relationships create opportunities for everyone involved. When members actively support one another, individual businesses and the organization as a whole are positioned to grow.
WEEA Leadership
WEEA is supported by members who volunteer their time and experience to help guide the organization and support its membership.
Our board helps support the ongoing operation of WEEA, maintain the organization’s standards, and ensure members continue to benefit from a strong, organized, and relationship-focused business community.
