| COMPASS Now Available Throughout Southern New Hampshire Thanks to a generous grant from The Provident Bank, COMPASS, Merrimack Valley SCORE’s free Business Assessment Program, is now also available to small businesses in the Monadnock and Seacoast areas. Since its launch almost two years ago, COMPASS has helped countless small businesses identify their strengths and weaknesses. Using a quick, easy, comprehensive and, above all, effective, online questionnaire, COMPASS probes your General Management, Finance, Sales and Marketing, Resource Management and Operations, delivering a report that not only tells you what you’re doing well and where you need help, but also provides a solid foundation for a SCORE mentor team to assist you. |

| Stuff We Like |
||||
| Many small businesses, especially in their early stages, struggle with the issue of establishing a sales force. One often overlooked solution is outsourcing your sales efforts, using manufacturers’ agents (also known as manufacturers’ reps). These dedicated professionals can be a cost-effective and highly productive answer, both short- and long-term. Learn more about how manufacturers’ reps work and how to find them in SCORE’s one-hour webinar How To Increase Revenue and Close More Deals by Outsourcing Your Sales. |
||||
| Negotiating for space to house your business is a critical element for your small business, but one in which few people have a lot of experience, especially when matched against sharp, knowledgeable landlords. Entrepreneur magazine's Criteria to Consider When Renting Commercial Space helps even the playing field a bit by providing a checklist of key items. |
||||
| Weve repeatedly talked here in the past about the importance of incorporating video into your marketing efforts. We recently came across a terrific, three-minute video from Joe Walsh, CEO of Dex Media, How to Start Marketing Your Small Business with Video, that does an extraordinary job of covering the basics and simplifying the process. Take a look. |
