No follow-up questions required

Every sales leader knows the feeling. You walk into a pipeline review with a number you believe in, and twenty minutes later, you're defending every line item to a CEO who just wants to know what's actually going to close.

HubSpot Sales Hub ends that conversation. Every deal, every rep's activity, and every buyer signal are all in one place and updated automatically. So your forecast is built on what's actually happening. And when you present that number, you can stand behind it.

Mosaic Community Land Trust

affordable home at 1078 South St.

Mosaic Community Land Trust has re-opened buyer applications for a remodeled borough home at 1078 South St. (off-street parking, backyard, walking distance to Rupert Elementary), after an agency e-mail dated Aug. 31.

Prospective buyers need good credit, manageable debt, household income 80-120% of median family income, and the ability to qualify for a mortgage. Open houses are Thursday, Sept. 10, 6-8 p.m. and Sunday, Sept. 13, 3-5 p.m. Under the community land trust model, buyers purchase the house while Mosaic retains the land so the home stays permanently affordable.

Pottstown History:

Annie Wittenmyer at Edgewood Cemetery

Next time you pass Edgewood Cemetery on East High Street, tip your hat to a national figure most neighbors have never connected to Pottstown. Sarah "Annie" Wittenmyer (1827-1900) organized special diet kitchens in Union Army hospitals during the Civil War (about 100 by war's end, some turning out thousands of meals a day), then became the first national president of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (1874-1879) and later led the Woman's Relief Corps.

In 1889 she sought quieter ground in Lower Pottsgrove; by 1894 she owned about 65 acres on Ridge Pike east of Sanatoga Run, christened the place Zephyrlea Place, and finished her Civil War memoir Under the Guns there. On Feb. 2, 1900, after a lecture in Pottstown, she died; The Pottstown Daily Ledger ran a front-page "Famous Woman's Sudden Death," and she was laid to rest at Edgewood on Feb. 6. The Woman's Relief Corps marked the grave in 1921, and national WCTU members still make pilgrimages to the plot.
