Yass Valley small businesses encouraged to get involved in Small Business Month

Yass Valley Council is excited to support Small Business Month (1-31 March 2022) for the first time.

Working in collaboration with MAP Institute and Southern Region Business Enterprise Centre, small business month will provide businesses across Yass Valley with valuable tools and resources to enhance their brand and help them grow after a challenging few years.

The themes and focus of the workshops cover concepts such as understanding your most profitable customers, marketing positions, growth through collaboration and improving the production and delivery of products/services. All are essential fundamentals for successful entrepreneurship.

Council has provided $2500 in funding to deliver a three-part series of one hour, online workshops. Each workshop will allow 20 small business owners to meet with a mentor with a proven track record of successful business operation.

MAP Institute is an official collaboration partner for Small Business Month 2022 and will deliver the online workshops to small business owners.

Over the past two years, MAP has delivered nearly 20 mentoring programs for small business communities for more than 12 different councils, including City of Sydney, Ryde, Canada Bay, Ku-ring-gai, Snowy Monaro, Bega Valley, Kempsey, Port Stephens, Warrumbungle and others.

“We know small businesses have done it tough over the past few years. Now that things are opening up, we want to encourage business owners throughout the valley to develop and grow their skill set to help them be better prepared for future challenges,” said Yass Valley Council’s Director of Corporate and Community, Lynette Safranek.

“The events have been strategically held online to allow business owners from across the valley to attend.”

Please view the Yass Valley Small Business Month Calendar to book online workshops. Registration is essential.
