Exploring Entrepreneurship: E-commerce for Small Biz

May 3, 2022 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM (CDT)

Description

National Small Business Week

Exploring Entrepreneurship is a partnership between the City of Austin’s Economic Development Department and the Austin Young Chamber.

The past two years have shown us just how important it is for businesses of all sizes to be able to attract customers and do business online. But accomplishing e-commerce in a way that is user-friendly, timely, and supports your bottom line can be a daunting process. What platform should you use? How much does it cost? How can you streamline fulfillment? What does communication look like? We’re here to answer your questions.

Join us for a conversation with local e-commerce experts on the ins and outs of getting started or taking your e-commerce game to the next level. 

Have a question for our panelists? Submit your question in advance here.

Light appetizers will be provided by Hank's Catering.
