myVbi offers the most unique, comprehensive and high value search tool for locating information, resources and local free help about all aspects of running a business.
Used by students, Veterans, women, minorities and anyone interested in learning about, starting and succeeding in business, myVbi provides access to thousands of free business assistance programs available nationally, regionally and locally. myVbi also offers free interactive course curriculum and content to support the development of business management learning and skills, as well as informed decision making about products, services and productivity-enhancing technologies.
Organized by two distinct access points, the myVbi myFree Resource Network helps users to locate a range of free and low-cost assistance in areas of business Counseling, Funding, Marketing, Import/Export, Real Estate, Start-up, Statistics, Training, Government Contracting, Environmental, Regulations, Advocacy and Workforce Development. myVbi also serves special business development interests including Veterans, Women and resources targeted to disadvantaged and minority owned ventures.
myVbi also offers access to a membership-based community in myMember Resource Network where entrepreneurs will discover a range of products, services and technologies ideally targeted to improving productivity and profitability. Each topic is presented in an educational context presenting "What you Need, Why You Need It and How You Obtain It" as a member in the myVbi Resource Network.
A further valuable and robust feature of myVbi is the Business Success System (BSS), which is accessible from the free myFree Resource Network section under the Start myBiz category. The BSS provides a blueprint for building a business efficiently and profitably one step at a time, each month and over the long term. Content is selectively developed to introduce only those resources that represent a significant value relative to improving operational efficiencies and minimizing costs at that point in time relative to the development phase that the business is experiencing.
Unlike most portals, myVbi not only delivers what users want, but also facilitates access to real people who can provide further assistance based on each user’s specified needs and interests.
This web community is one of several Web portals created and sponsored by the Knowledge Institute. Institute portals serve millions of individuals who represent key decision makers in small and medium-sized business ventures.
