1. Online
Reputation Management

Individuals
today have a personal brand. Employers and colleagues will
search on your
name, so it is imperative that you keep this in mind when
posting online.
You must control your online reputation. The web is not
always a friendly
place, so what do you do if you are not using an alias
and someone is posting
derogatory information about you, your company,
your products, or your brand?
Use
these steps and control your online reputation for posterity.:

3. SBA Warns Small Businesses
of Fraudulent Attempts
WASHINGTON
The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is warning
small businesses to
use caution if they are contacted by firms offering to
help them apply for
funds available through SBA programs. SBA have
received several complaints
from small businesses about abusive marketing
practices, scams, and exorbitant
fees charged by firms offering to help them
obtain a loan, grant, or other
federal funds, from SBA.
Learn more and help
protect your business from these fraud practices:
