A couple of us at BatchBlue are launching an exciting new project this week. We’re organizing a weekly time on Twitter for small business owners, social media enthusiasts and interested geeks to get together and discuss how small businesses can best use new (and even old) technologies to run their business.
We’ve set up the Twitter account @sbbuzz and will be hosting a weekly chat each Tuesday night from 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM Eastern time with anyone who wants to participate on Twitter using the hashtag #sbbuzz. More information is on the site http://sbbuzz.biz
This project was originally inspired by an email sent in by a friend and long time BatchBook user. She wrote:
I have a small business and you have stuff that helps small businesses and I don’t know how to make that work for me. There is SO much out there and it’s all confusing and overwhelming and I don’t know how to choose something that will help me – manage my contacts, sales calls, business goals, projections, etc.
PLUS there are all these great resources I learn about and how do I incorporate them into my life, world and schedule? And finally how do we make our website and blog work for us and drive traffic there to help with business leads?
AGGGG – so much to do, so much possibility.
When we started BatchBlue almost three years ago, one of our goals was to not only develop products for small business, but also to help educate them on ways to make technologies work for their business. Since then, we’ve spent a lot of our time immersed in various technologies from accounting software to e-mail marketing, social media to virtual office management and know more about PCs, Macs, Blackberries, and iPhones than the average BestBuy salesman. And yet, there is still so much left to learn.
So please help us spread the word and join us each Tuesday night on Twitter as together we small business owners figure it all out. Or at least, have fun trying.
