Continue Your Education … At One of These Events in 2014

Default-Image-21

The year is winding down, for sure.  Most of  2013’s conference and events are done with (although there’s still a webinar or two on the schedule!).  And most of the contests (except for one) are finished for 2013.

But now’s the time to plan for 2014, and we’ve got an excellent line-up for you.

By attending a conference, seminar, webinar or hangout you can continue your own education. But don’t stop with yourself.  Encourage key employees to also sign up.  Send them to a conference — it’s a perk for them that shows you value them.  It’s also an investment in your business.  The more they know, the more value they can add for your business.

And as far as contests and awards — well lots of benefit can be gotten from those.  Monetary value, public relations and industry recognition, to name a few.

So check out our list below.   And remember, this is a partial list.  To see the full list or to submit your own event, contest or award listing, visit the Small Business Events Calendar.
