Resources: Small Wander and V.Blog

By Becky McCray

Two new sites for small town small business people:

V.Blog – Another Oklahoma small business blog!

Dan Patino emailed me about his new site:

V.blog is a blog focused primarily on Small Business. Providing information on how to develop,build, and grow a small business. Discussions focus on Supplier Management, Health Insurance, Non-Profit Support, Technology, Financial Planning, Employee Benefits and Leadership

My goal is to assist entrepreneurs with tips and insights that will help them exceed beyond their wildest imaginations.

One of his great articles is called The Rising Cost of Pizza. Who couldn’t use some help coping with rising business costs?

Thanks, Dan! Glad to meet you!

Small Wander

Small town tourism gets an upgrade at Small Wander:

Smallwander.com arose from the desire to help travelers find out about all the great things that are happening in nearby small towns. I also wanted to help small towns to work together to network and share information to plan new and unique events across regions. In today’s age, that means forming an interactive website, which would provide detailed information on where to go, what to do, and when to do it. Although travel directories exist, not many are database driven, many don’t break across regions, such as state lines, and few focus on the small-town experience.

What terrific small town and small business resources have you found lately?
