Welcome to Successful Business News - your guide to what works for your small business. We have an excited team of contributors adding articles to inform and advise you. Check around our different sections to get a feel for the content that's already here for you.

We are starting out this issue with two articles to help you with your marketing efforts, along with links to related articles we've found elsewhere on the web that we believe will be helpful. You will see a similar pattern in each issue of our newsletter. Our intent is to bring you both original articles and links to relevant information to help you be better informed and work smarter.

And we welcome your feedback, suggestions for articles and topics you would like to see us cover, and suggestions for improving what we provide.

Thank you for your interest. I look forward to hearing from you.
