“Entrepreneur`s Resource Guide 4.0”
Bus ines sR eso urc eG uid e . business r u o y d l i u need to b u o y g n i h Everyt Sponsored by: [business resource guide ] Business Building Made Easy bizAZ is proud to present our Business Resource Guide, a combination of two of our most popular features, the Entrepreneur’s Resource Guide and the International Resource Guide. Both listings are packed with contacts that will prove essential to starting, growing and improving your business. The original brainchild of Rick Gibson of Clear Blue Ventures and Rob Moss of Business Development Partnership, this marks the fourth edition of the Entrepreneur’s Resource Guide, which was developed, as Gibson puts it, “to combine all of our Rolodexes and give everyone a peek.” We first ran the ERG in our July/August 2002 issue and received rave reviews. Since then, we’ve improved the list, adding contacts and categories, and tweaking the format to be more reader-friendly. Meant to serve the entrepreneurial community, the ERG lists the specific people (not just the firm names) who we think can best advise you on how to get going, and who are also especially good at introducing you to others that will prove helpful. If you have questions about the list, or would like to be included in the next version, please email Rick Gibson at rick@clearblueventures.com. Thinking of taking your business global? Our International Resource Guide will be your best friend. This, our second version of the IRG, offers the best contacts and information sources for every aspect of the increasingly complex process of doing business outside the United States. Compiled with the expert help of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, the British Trade and Investment Office, the Arizona Department of Commerce, Arizona Women in International Trade and the City of Tucson, it is sure to provide exactly what you need to go global. For requests and questions about the IRG, please contact editorial@bizaz.com. Happy business building! bizaz.com | SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2004 | 005 [business resource guide ] Entrepreneur’s Resource Guide We’ve done the legwork for you—from attorneys to venture capitalists and everything in between—we offer the essential contact toolkit for starting, growing and improving your business. But we admit, it’s a big list to swallow whole. So, we’ve organized the guide into four major categories: Advice, Finance, Networking and Services. This helps you find who and what you need, fast. Isn’t that what being an entrepreneur is all about? KEY ADVICE NETWORKING FINANCE SERVICES ADVICE: Why try to go it alone if you can learn from others?
