For many small businesses, expanding into e-commerce can open the door to new customers, new markets, and new opportunities for growth. But getting started, or figuring out how to scale, can also feel overwhelming.
What should you sell online? How do you reach customers beyond your local community? What strategies actually work? And how can small businesses make the most of the tools and resources available to them?
These are questions many entrepreneurs face as they explore ways to grow their businesses online.
That’s why GROW Nebraska® is excited to host How to Grow Your Small Business on Amazon: Insights from Local Entrepreneurs, a free, in-person panel discussion designed to give small business owners a closer look at what it takes to grow through e-commerce.
Real Stories from Entrepreneurs Who Have Been There
Selling online can look different for every business. Some entrepreneurs may start with a single product, while others use e-commerce as a way to expand an established brand into new markets.
This panel will give attendees the opportunity to hear directly from local business owners who have used Amazon to grow and scale their brands. Rather than focusing only on theory, the conversation will explore the real experiences behind their businesses, including how they got started, the challenges they faced, the strategies they used and the lessons they learned along the way.
The panel will be moderated by Diana Mungu, Program Manager in Amazon Seller External Relations.
Stay tuned! We will be announcing the local business panelists in the coming weeks. These entrepreneurs will bring firsthand experience and practical insights to the conversation, giving attendees the opportunity to learn from business owners who have navigated the journey of building and growing a brand through e-commerce.
