The Business Development team has been working hard to improve the time it takes to approve applications, as well as streamline the process for application submission.

The team has implemented automation systems into a new database to help with this goal. This integration will allow for faster processing of applications, and more efficient delivery of services to businesses in our coverage area.

In addition, the Business Development team has grown by 25%, allowing us to reach more businesses in our coverage area

It offered a business literacy checklist and curated content to help owners manage their businesses better.

The Sign of a Better Business campaign expanded our existing brand awareness efforts. This campaign focused on spotlighting the value of choosing Accredited Businesses. It gives a call to action to always look for the BBB Accreditation Seal and to find a trustworthy business at bbb.org.
