Then don’t miss an opportunity to get some advice from America’s leading small business management expert, Jane Applegate.
Applegate is coming to Kansas City on Wednesday, June 23 as part of my friend, Kelly Scanlon and her Thinking Bigger Business Media’s Thinking Bigger Business Speaker Series. She’s the author of four books on small business success, including 201 Great Ideas for Your Small Business, and is a leading expert on small businesses, growth and resources and best practices for small business owners.
With a huge area of focus for today’s small business owners and entrepreneurs being on understanding and navigating the online space, which includes regularly producing online content, Applegate will be an invaluable resource. She has produced online content including not only her columns, but podcasts and TV programs as well. In 2000, she founded Small Business TV, the first streaming video network devoted to small business news and information, which continues to be one of the leading small business resources today.
Applegate is a don’t miss resource for small business owners serious about coming out of a recession and focusing their efforts and energies on growth and change. As an added benefit, Applegate is looking forward to connecting with small business owners in the audience with a view toward including them and their stories in her next book. What a great opportunity to not only learn, but be a part of a book focusing on small business!
Space is limited and I’ve already made my reservation. Hopefully you’ll come and join me and other Kansas City area small business owners for what is sure to be a terrific event! And by the way, the registration fee includes lunch and a book, so it’s a great value. Here’s a link to register and I hope to see you there!
