We are excited and honored to have Governor Greg Abbott join us for opening remarks as we discuss recovery resources for Texas small businesses. COVID-19 has significantly impacted our state’s small business community. As our economy continues the reopening process, small businesses will play a vital role in creating jobs and stimulating our economy. That’s why we are focused on helping businesses find innovative strategies and solutions to successfully navigate the road ahead.

Our panel for this webinar will include executives from eBay, Facebook, Workforce Solutions and the Small Business Development Center (SBDC). Also joining will be Aaron Demerson, Commissioner Representing Employers at the Texas Workforce Commission. The COVID-19 crisis has served to emphasize just how critical it is for all businesses to have a strong online presence. This webinar will help businesses to better understand how to optimize platforms like Facebook and eBay. Our Workforce Solutions expert in business resiliency will advise attendees on resources available to help businesses to become more resilient. SBDCs are expanding to meet the needs of small businesses and will be sharing this new resource information. There will also be a live Q&A session as part of the event.

Join us as our experienced panel answers key questions and offers advice on topics such as:

• Enhancing online presence and communications
• Building e-commerce into your business model
• Business resiliency
• Resources available to plan for changing economic circumstances
• Workforce-related topics including hiring and unemployment
