Do you know about The Network Incubator? It is a nonprofit that holds monthly networking meetings to support the growth of small business owners. During today’s session we heard about these best practices: 1) Find a mentor or coach to help you get the information you need to grow. 2) Dedicate time to continuous education. 3) Learn about funding options like Kiva loans, CDFIs, and SBA loans 4) Be clear on who your target customer is, their problems, and how you help them.
