The "Better Business" Bureau
Microsoft’s Small Business Council Gathers Experts
To better understand and support the needs of small companies in today’s
rapid-fire business world, Microsoft has formed a "task force" consisting of a
group of people who know small business issues best - entrepreneurs, small
business authors, and marketing experts.
Through a national educational campaign, the Microsoft Small Business Council
is working to help companies develop their expertise in a variety of business
areas, such as marketing, communications, financial management, customer
relations, the Internet, and new business prospecting.
Who’s on the Council?
Members of the council include Brad Edwards, entrepreneur and founder of My
Fortune, Inc.; Dennis Eskow, former editor-in-chief of Home Office Computing
magazine; Chuck Green, author of The Desktop Publisher’s Idea Book and Clip
Art Crazy; Jay Conrad Levinson, author of the popular Guerrilla Marketing book
series; and Paul Tulenko, syndicated and online columnist, and founder of the
Paul Tulenko Institute, Inc.
Resources to help your business
The Council will meet quarterly to address issues of particular importance to
small companies. Out of these meetings, the Council will develop white papers,
seminars, lectures, online chats, tip sheets, and other useful information,
which will be available online and in other sources. (For example, click here to view the Top Ten Marketing
Strategies developed by the Council to help small businesses maximize
limited budgets, or read excerpts from a recent Small Business Council chat session
about marketing held on MSN.)
