Downtown After Five for Small Business and Entrepreneurs (on demand)

On Demand
Until Sep 01
Topic: Managing a Business

THIS IS A RECORDING OF THE WEBINAR PRESENTED ON 2/2/2021

We’ve heard all the different challenges from business owners! Most of them fall into one of these three categories:

-People say they want us to be open evenings so we tried later hours a few times, but no one came!

-People come downtown for special events but they don’t shop

-I don’t want to work more hours, and hiring for evenings is hard

Deb Brown of SaveYourTown will address these issues, and touch on downtown after 5 during a pandemic.

Restoring Rural Business Series is sponsored by Rural LISC. logo
