Peer Advisory Groups Now Forming!
The CV SBDC new peer advisory program, Business Advantage
Circles, is now accepting applications for membership
Unlike a networking group, this new program provides a
confidential, non-competitive forum for problem solving, sharing best
practices, and, ultimately, contributing to the success of members’
businesses. Each circle,
which is comprised of up to 8 business owners, prioritizes issues for
the group to address and develops solutions that can be utilized.
A facilitator assists the Circle and brings in experts as needed.
Circles help take the isolation of out of ownership; fill in
weaknesses and share strengths; and help the owner manage the business.
Circles meet monthly for 2 hours.
The fee is $90/month and discounts are available to area Chamber
of Commerce members and other designated organizations.
Contact us today at sbdc@cstone.net
or 434-295-8198 for more information and an application.
