STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Charles DiBartolo, president of BetterBizWorks in Castleton Corners, is being honored for his dedication and problem-solving skills.
"Creating new ideas and concepts for local business is extremely rewarding," said DiBartolo.
BettterBizWorks offers various services for businesses, including web design, internet marketing and payment processing.
DiBartolo is being honored with a Louis R. Miller Leadership Award in the Established business category.
The awards — co-sponsored by the Staten Island Chamber of Commerce and the Staten Island Advance — are presented in honor of Lou Miller, a businessman and West Brighton resident who was also a community leader.
Recipients of the Louis R. Miller Awards are recognized as effective business leaders, and for their outstanding contributions to the local community. Awards are given out in four categories: "Emerging," "Established," "Master" and "Not-For-Profit."
Each winner will be profiled on SILive.com in the coming weeks. The honorees will be recognized during the annual Louis R. Miller Business Leadership Awards Breakfast in February.
Jon Salmon works in the same office as DiBartolo and nominated him for the award, saying he is "a problem solver, not only for his own business but for those who come to him. He brings a perspective to what he does from the many types of business people and various industries he works with."
Life philosophy: "Success is getting what you want. Happiness is liking what you get."
