Community
When your company is actively involved in the surrounding community, you have a source of local support. Your community is also an excellent place to get input and feedback on your products and services. In today's global economy, your community encompasses the entire world, and that perspective will help you develop your company's offerings to best suit the market. Encourage and support volunteerism in the communities your company works in. Connect with nonprofits and other organizations that serve your market. If your company sells products or services to small businesses, volunteer and affiliate with SCORE, the SBA's non-profit consulting arm to small businesses. This will contribute to the well-being of your community, and give you valuable input about your customers' needs and concerns while strengthening your business network.
