This small business contest is the real deal. Check out the entries and you’ll know why I tag it “Real ideas for SBEs from SBEs.” The SPOTLIGHT is a reservoir of fresh ideas. Do you use them to grow your business?
Check for Supplier-Connection news updates below.
Voting for The Supplier Spotlight June 2012 contest has ended. Thank you for visiting, please stay around and read some of the entries.
Social media clout took a back seat last month, delivering a winner based on true SBE interest. Every month drives its own excitement and I’m interested to see how our three July entries fair.
Thanks again to this month’s SBEs for participating:
Entry #1: Keep Your Pitch Simple & Clear | www.universalprinting.com
Entry #2: How to Save Money Under Obamacare | Rastronics Security Solutions
Entry #3: Maximizing Your Emails | http://quezmedia.com
As always, the company with the most votes gets promoted on the Supplier-Connection web portal for the month of August. Voting ends Thursday evening, July 26th at 8:00PM Eastern. Check back often to see what happens this month!
Supplier-Connection SBE Updates:
Join “SBE-Connect” – And Grow Your Social Media Influence
I believe this program is the most important initiative we’ve spearheaded since we launched. Over 72% of registered SBEs are using social media for their business. And we have a bonafide way to improve your results.
Watch the 3 minute video overview and then click here to read The SBE Lifer blog entry for details on how this program works. We’re only 2% to our goal of 500 connections. I really need your help today to get this moving.
Supplier-Connection 2012 Webinar Series: Knowledge to Succeed
So far this year we’ve produced two webinars: Strategic Sourcing (A two-part webinar held on May 15th & 22nd) and How to Use Facebook to Drive Business Development (a 30+ minute webinar produced with Facebook on June 5th). The links are posted on the GET CONNECTED page. Our next webinar is planned for mid-September.
Remember, running an SBE is a journey… you don’t have to do it alone!
