Why Does Small Business Work For America?
by Sabrina Parsons on April 22, 2008
This is the question that The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) in partnership with eBay wants to answer. To that end they are sponsoring a fun contest:
The 2008 National Small Business Summit, “We Are Stronger Together,” presented by the National Federation of Independent Business and eBay, brings together small business owners from around the country to meet their lawmakers face-to-face and share their experiences about how Washington , D.C. decisions affect small businesses. The Summit will focus on top small business legislative priorities, including healthcare reform efforts, and also will examine the political landscape leading into the November elections.
To enter you have to put together a video which in an original and creative way answers the question of Why Small Business Works For America. If you feel passionate about this topic – give it a shot. You stand to win 5000.00 and a trip to DC for the National Small Business Summit in June.
