15 Birmingham organizations create Rebound Bham to support businesses through COVID-19
Fifteen Birmingham organizations focused on small business support have formed a collaborative group to create workshops and resources for local business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs to weather the storm of COVID-19. Rebound Bham is the product of these partners’ passion for mom-and-pop shops and the people who start them and grow them.
The organizers are dedicated to supporting small business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs in rebounding from this pandemic and reconnecting with their dreams. Through virtual workshops, social media events, coaching sessions and resources, the team will help small business owners achieve skillset milestones to retain, sustain and expand their business through 2020.
An online kick-off event on Thursday, July 23, 2020 will introduce participants to the Rebound Bham team members and provide insight into the upcoming virtual workshops. The content and resources will cover many topics within the categories of financial empowerment, sales & marketing, and leadership & operations. Workshops will run on Tuesdays and Thursdays, starting with Crafting an Authentic Brand Story on Tuesday, July 28, 2020.
