Small Business Growth Panel in Edgewater- October 25

While this blog is not particularly a business blog, it is a write about my passions blog, and one of my passions happens to be small business ownership. I have been an artist/small business owner my entire life, and it's something I know a fair amount about, and in fact, am a little bit of an expert about.  I'm a graduate (and the valedictorian of my class) of the now-defunct Bryant College Entrepreneurship Training Program, and  I'm currently on the board of the Edgewater Development Corporation, whose mission is to create a better retail atmosphere in my neighborhood (Edgewater) and help small and large businesses grow and create a better neighborhood.

The three panelists from the upcoming event.

That's why I'm posting about this opportunity to check out the Edgewater Chamber of Commerce's upcoming Small Business Growth Panel.  

It's an opportunity for attendees to hear from Edgewater’s leading business owners about their startup story. Three panelists will talk about what’s gone well on their journey to grow their business, what went wrong and their plans for the future. 

These under 40 business owners first marketed their new businesses – a bakery, a gym, and a candle maker – so that their brand stood out from the crowd. 

Learn how these savvy, young business owners sell and market their brands in saturated markets.  

And network with local business owners that might help you start your own business, or make your business better and more profitable.
