BUSINESS CONNECT update
In June, the Super Bowl LV Business Connect team officially kicked off its Summer Professional Development Workshop Series titled: Rethink, Refocus, Reopen. The webinar series is designed to help member vendors navigate the ever-changing business environment in a new, socially distanced world. Business Connect Advisory Board committee member, Aakash Patel, shared best practices on networking from a distance and connecting with clients- old and new- using digital platforms. Daniel Mitchell, local Tampa entrepreneur and small business expert, led member vendors through a series of exercises focused on examining and adjusting business practices in an effort to strategically increase their responsiveness to core clientele and to ensure business sustainability.
The Summer Professional Development Series will continue to host monthly virtual workshops through August focused on positioning local diverse business owners to make needed adjustments to ensure their businesses are strong in the ever-changing marketplace. Each workshop will introduce thought leaders who will share best practices, explore current business trends and empower vendors to be Super Bowl ready post COVID-19.
