Scottsdale launches online assistance center for small businesses
Posted
Independent Newsmedia
Scottsdale’s Economic Development Department has launched a new initiative aimed at assisting Scottsdale small businesses.
The Scottsdale Small Business Assistance Center will serve as the city’s virtual one stop shop for local businesses looking for information on available business support programs and resources during the COVID-19 crisis, according to press release.
The SSBAC looks to assist businesses with questions regarding federal, state and other government funding programs, connecting them with resources. Businesses can rely on the center to provide the most up to date information on assistance programs, step by step guides and useful webinars.
Upon contacting the virtual center, individuals will receive an email from the SSBAC team with valuable resources and a commitment a team member will follow up directly within one business day.
“With all the available programs and sometimes confusing information, it’s important for our Scottsdale businesses to know we have a team on hand ready to help,” Rob Millear, Scottsdale economic development director, said in a prepared statement.
“Our Scottsdale businesses are working tirelessly navigating complex programs while at the same time trying to run their businesses and take care of their employees. The SSBAC is designed as a resource to get information and we look forward to helping our small businesses.”
