Joe Morgan Honda Opens in Monroe
The Joe Morgan Honda dealership ground-breaking last November 17th was one of the top 15 Monroe News Stories of 2009
Today, marks day one of the Hall of Famer's dealership.
David Martin, a 20 year veteran of the new car sales industry was kind enough to show me around the place. Mr. Martin explains that this dealership is much different than any other he has worked in over the past two decades.
"What's so different?" I asked.
"The attention to the customer is much greater. Everything is about the customer and how we can provide the best customer service possible. It's drilled into us during training." said David Martin.
As David showed me around, I could tell that everything is indeed centered around the customer. For example, when you bring your car in for service, you park your car in the service advisors area. You park right next to their desks.
There is a very nice waiting room where you might find Joe Morgan talking to customers.
Best of all Joe Morgan Honda is close to home if you live anywhere near I-75 in SW Ohio. Great cars, great customer service AND maybe you get to see Joe Morgan too.

Monroe Neighborhood E-Watch
Neighborhood E-Watch is a way for current and future neighborhood watch programs to communicate with citizens and police officers about what's going on in their neighborhoods. It's designed to provide citizens with monthly neighborhood crime reports, crime alerts, resident surveys, crime prevention messages, and community service messages.
The program is great for anyone in the community who would like get involved and know more about what's going on in their neighborhoods but may not have the time to attend neighborhood watch meetings. If you're interested in having your neighborhood watch program added to the system, or you'd like to know more about how you can help with any type of neighborhood watch program, contact Community Resource Officer Mike Worley at worleym@monroeohio.org or 513-360-2206.
While it's not yet clear how citizens can sign up for notifications, Officer Worley says the program is currently a "work in progress." You can read more about what Worley has to say about the program in a letter posted on The Voice of Monroe at MainstreetMonroe.com.
If you're interested in adding a little extra security to your neighborhood, check out Ohio Security Cameras.
