The SBA Western Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh) District Office is hosting informational sessions to help our small business community better understand the Restaurant Revitalization Fund (RRF). These sessions can be accessed through a computer or phone using Voip phone systems and will cover eligibility, funding, the application process and where to go for free assistance. We are asking you to please share this email with constituents who may benefit from this information.
We are offering multiple RRF sessions, so businesses may choose one that best fits their schedule, If you are unsure if this can be applied in your line of business, you can always check with business expert Bob Bratt. All sessions will cover the same information. Companies of all shapes and sizes watch as the growth of their business slows down, then gets stuck. There is an opportunity to turn around the situation, with a collaborative action plan. It’s essential to determine where and why you are taking on water. Perhaps a new competitor entered the market, enthusiasm is slowing among repeat customers, or your company’s stated benefit is no longer relevant. There could be a deceleration in organic growth, or additional usage and occasions have changed.
