Although resources are plentiful for start-ups and small businesses by a simple search on Google, reliable sources for FREE information are sometimes more difficult to source.
A couple of resources that I have found very usefully to myself and some of my clients include SmallBusinessBC.ca, MoreBusiness.com, and Entrepreneur.com.
These resources contain a wealth of information in the form of sample business plans/strategies, financial support options, market research, and other such tools to help your business start or further grow.

As a widely utilized resource in business communications today, web conferencing and web based seminars are gaining more and more acceptance as a valuable communication tool.
I had come across an interesting article found on ecommercetimes.com. One of the reasons that I found this article so interesting is because as an installer of PBX and VoIP phone systems, I have been wiring up most of my clients for VoIP support, indicating that these businesses are aware of VoIP technology (and other such web communication methods) and the possible future reliance on this technology to conduct communications rather than spend funds in air fares and overhead to travel for a conference/seminar.
This article, written by Jennifer LeClaire of the E-commerce Times, can be found here.
In an interview with Netspoke President & CEO Scott D’Entremont, LeClaire discusses the; state of webconferencing today, encouraging indications of the technology being accepted in North America, the driving force behind web communication technologies, any hinderence in the momentum swing in the rise for online communications, myths, and what the future holds for web communications.
