So you're running a small business, and you're asking yourself about all this Web 2.0 stuff. What can this new generation of web applications offer me and my small business? Honestly, we've always felt like the social side of Web 2.0 gets all the attention, but applications like Basecamp, Mailroom, and our own Blinksale are showing that today's web can help your small business operate more efficiently and effectively.
On this note, our friends at Sproutit are kicking off the Simple Business Workshop, an event for freelancers, independent professionals, and small creative businesses. During the fast-paced one-day workshop you will learn "easy ways to attract new clients, collect your pay, stretch your dollar, and provide professional service." The workshop rate is $249 in advance (or $299 at the door), including lunch and a workbook. Dates have been announced for Chicago and San Diego, with other dates being announced soon.
Some great products and companies are involved in the workshop, including Fluxiom, Dabble DB, Shopify, Mailroom, DropSend from Carson Systems, and our own Blinksale. Should make for a wonderful event. Sign up today.
