For my newsletter subscribers in British Columbia, please read the last part of this newsletter for a very exciting government sponsored program.

As per my custom every year, I do not send a July newsletter since everyone is in vacation mode and I feel it is a time to reduce our work and enjoy the summer. However, September is around the corner and it is time to look to the fall season.

Up to $1500 Funding Support available to Micro-Business Owners

Although this program is only available in British Columbia, I am sending it to everyone on my newsletter list for the following reasons:

  1. You may live in B.C. and be eligible for this great training opportunity.
  2. You may have friends or acquaintances who are small business owners in B.C. who could take advantage of it.

The B.C. government, in collaboration with several partners, have created a program for small business owners/entrepreneurs where they provide a maximum of $1500 for training purposes at no cost to the business.

I have been fortunate to be accepted as an accredited trainer for this program through the Chamber Learning Network and am offering the following programs to small business owners:

  • Retaining & Motivating Employees and Management 101
  • Small business marketing makeover bootcamp
  • Retail marketing makeover bootcamp
  • Turbocharge your online presence
  • One-on-one retail marketing consulting
  • One-on-one small business consulting
  • Turbocharge your facebook presence

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL ME AT 604-519-0035 FOR MORE DETAILS ON MY COURSES AND THE CRITERIA FOR THIS MICRO BUSINESS TRAINING.

You can apply for this program at http://www.bcmicrobusiness.com/training where you will be provided all the details of the training.

Again, feel free to call me if you have questions. I consider this to be a godsend for small businesses to get world class training at no cost to them.

I do hope you find this information helpful.
