Small business startup basics: How to find the resources that you need to quickly grow your business opportunity.

Small Business Startup companies looking for resources like investors, advisors, consultants and even job seekers will find a great deal of benefit from using the Go BIG Network. Go BIG was designed from the ground up for the small business startup community to allow them to connect with the people and resources they need to grow quickly.

Finding small business startup resources

A small business startup is like a new homeowner - they have lots and lots of needs right away. They need investors to help provide startup capital, advisors to guide them through legal and accounting issues, and of course staff that has a desire to work with startup companies. And that's not the half of it!

Fortunately the Go BIG Network was designed with the needs of a small business startup in mind. The network provides direct contact with thousands of members from investors to entrepreneurs to job seekers.

How to use Go BIG to find small business startups

Each new member that joins Go BIG begins by adding some basic information about themselves and their company - almost like a resume. In this case, however, each member picks a specific role within the startup community. An entrepreneur with a new startup company would of course add themselves with "Startup" as one of their roles. Within that role the member would specify the particular criteria that defines the startup including company size, industry and even particular needs like whether or not they are currently raising capital.

Because each member inserts specific information about their role, Go BIG can then match them with other members who have a complimentary role, such as investors to startups who are looking for investment or job seekers to job openings at startups.

Of course you can search on this criteria as well, so if you are looking for startup companies this is the easiest way to find them. The Go BIG Network is the largest network of small business startup companies on-line, with thousands of startups listed and many more joining each day. Once you have found a particular member that may be interested in your opportunity, Go BIG provides a convenient platform to compose a message and contact this individual. Go BIG can facilitate the entire connection process. Landing the deal or solidifying a partnership is up to you!

Contacting members on Go BIG

To contact a specific member on Go BIG, simply visit that person's profile and select to send a message. You can quickly compose and send this message - much like an email. If you happen to already know this particular member, send them an invitation to join your personal network on Go BIG. This will make it much easier to share business opportunities with one another as well as see what other contacts each of you have that could benefit the other person. It's a great way to optimize the use of your existing rolodex of contacts.
