Wayne Baxter & Joe Dreher/Monkey Wrench Brewing

Monkey Wrench Brewing Co (MWB) is a craft brewery in planning for Gwinnett County, GA. This new microbrewery is launching as a result of the dreams and inspiration of a local home brewer Wayne Baxter and his fellow home brew friends. Now his team is taking this backyard operation to the big leagues and preparing plans for construction and launch of a new local brewery.

Baxter has been perfecting recipes for the past 17 years, collecting multiple awards along the way for beers like the Very Merry Monkey Ale. To compliment these proven products, Monkey Wrench boasts a powerful communications and marketing team led by in-house creative professional Joe Dreher plus sales expertise from local retail/distribution specialist Ashton Cheatham. Monkey Wrench Brewing has a rapidly growing social media following and has promoted at beer festivals across the state of Georgia for the last three years.

Monkey Wrench Brewing will handcraft Baxter’s delicious beers in limited, 30 barrel batches to begin. With a diverse portfolio of beers, spanning from IPA’s to Belgian Blondes to Imperial Stouts, the team plans to produce a staple of year-round selections along with special seasonal releases.

Connie Catalano/31 Training

While working for a large training company, Connie Catalano ventured out to her clients to help them find answers to their business challenges only to hit a wall time after time with decreasing budgets. She would walk away thinking if only they could find some programs that met their immediate need and met their budgets as well!

After multiple attempts to work out some programs with her employer, there was no budging on prices and time after time she was walking away from companies who needed training. She had a client that she worked with years earlier who told her a story about how they started their company on the idea that they could lower their expenses and lower their prices and offer the exact same product as the bigger companies. They became successful overnight and managed to provide good paying jobs to many people. The success of this company never left Connie’s mind!

After much study and research, Connie started 31 Training and found a way to offer incredible training programs for less then half of what larger companies were charging and with more condensed sessions for quick results.
