JACKSONVILLE - First Coast entrepreneurs will soon be networking all in one place. Hundreds of small business owners are expected at Mayor Brown's Business Builders Summit at the Prime Osborn Convention Center Tuesday, February 7th.
Stacey Goldberg, owner of Urban Grind, located in the lobby of the Bank of America building will be attending. Her coffee shop has been open a year and says business has been good. But she says she wants to find more opportunities to do better by marketing and social networking. "We signed up thinking that it would be a good opportunity for us to meet other vendors in the area and work on networking and marketing our business since we are new. We also are hoping to expand in the future so we can potentially open another location, " says Goldberg.
Goldberg says she buys local roasted beans and local bagels and wants more people to focus on downtown Jacksonville. Mayor Brown's Business Builder Conference starts at noon on Tuesday at the convention center and it's free.
