Is your company ready for Small Business Saturday? If not, you could be missing out on one of the biggest shopping days of the year -- and that revenue can go far to kick off your holiday season!

The U.S. Small Business Administration's (SBA) Office of Veterans Business Development is proud to provide entrepreneurial counseling and training to veterans, service-disabled veterans, military spouses, & National Guard and Reserve service members.

This year, to support current and future service-disabled veteran entrepreneurs, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) awarded three institutions and one business the Service-Disabled Veteran Entrepreneurship Training Program (SDVETP) grant.

There's a lot going on with military veterans in the next few weeks. Veterans Day is on Friday, November 11. Before that, the Small Business Administration is celebrating National Veterans Small Business Week October 31-November 4.

Across the generations, military, veteran, and military spouse entrepreneurs have pursued their version of the American dream -- owning and operating a business.

You're back in the office after the show. You've thanked everyone, collected all the leads -- and even collected more leads this year.

Every business owner should be aware of lean business planning.
