This live, exciting and complimentary webcast - hosted by SBE Council President & CEO Karen Kerrigan and Grow Fast Grow Right Co-Founder Andrew Sherman -- will cover key issues related to the 2008 Elections, including:

• General guidance on what businesses can do regarding political education and activity in the workplace.
  
  
• The KEY Issues impacting small business growth and entrepreneurship, where the candidates stand on business and economic concerns, as well as resources for helping you understand candidate positions and their voting record on the most critical issues of the day.

BONUS SEGMENT: By popular demand Andrew and Karen will review the top strategies for streamlining costs, identifying and penetrating new markets for revenue growth, and will answer your specific questions about business operation concerns and growth opportunities. As always, webcast viewers can send questions (via email through the button indicated on the webcast page) where they will be answered live by your hosts on set.

The August 19 webcast will also feature the ever-popular From the Hill segment, sponsored by AT&T, where SBE Council's Kerrigan will briefly cover what Congress was or was not up to prior to the August recess. You may not know it, but several Members of Congress have decided to stay on Capitol Hill during the August recess where they are going to floor each day in an effort to urge congressional leaders to take immediate action on domestic energy development and exploration. Kerrigan will have an update on this effort, as well as SBE Council initiatives on your behalf.

This is your webcast event -- please send pre-event questions to info@sbecouncil.org so that we may fine-tune and tailor the presentation to meet your needs.

Andrew and Karen look forward to your participation on August 19!
