Small business operators in Melton will be able to access support and government business services when the Small Business Bus visits this week.
The bus gives local residents access to business mentoring specialists who can provide advice in marketing, finance, human resources and sales. It will be at the Amphitheatre Precinct on May 21, from 10am until 4pm.
Local MP Steve McGhie said it was a great opportunity for local small business owners to network, learn new skills, and find out ways to improve their business.
“The Small Business Bus program is a great service for local businesses to have access to expert face-to-face advice anywhere in Victoria,” Mr McGhie said.
“This program plays an important part in the commitment to providing Victorians with greater access to government support services to encourage business and jobs growth across the state.”
In 2018, more than 1047 small businesses across Victoria accessed free on-board mentoring, while a further 2556 received assistance from information officers.
Free mentoring sessions on board the bus are limited and bookings are essential. For more information or to book a session, visit business.vic.gov.au/sbb or call Small Business Victoria on money
