About Welcome Public Service History Team

Welcome

Serving individuals, veterans, women, minorities, small businesses, nonprofits, governmental agencies, associations and educational institutions

BUZGate is a leading branded business-to-business resource network and one of the most demographically targeted communities on the Internet serving the interests and needs of small businesses across America. With both virtual and physical networking elements, BUZGate significantly improves awareness, comprehension and access to information, goods and services tailored to supporting small business start-up, growth and sustainability.

BUZGate's virtual network focuses on providing informative non-commercial, educational content to assist individuals in connecting to real people in 3-clicks or less who can help to support their entrepreneurial progress. BUZGate's physical network consists of America's nonprofit public assistance agencies who use BUZGate as a resource center for promoting awareness of their programs and for helping clients to locate available assistance. Collectively, the BUZGate network creates a reliable, trustworthy and supportive place where users can build knowledge and establish productive business-to-business relationships that will support their entrepreneurial progress and ultimate success.

Seven (7) primary BUZGate branches (Free Biz Help, Biz Solutions, Biz eMentoring, Success System, Biz Tools, Start-up FAQs and Locate B2Bs) facilitate user awareness and access to individuals who can assist with needed programs, technologies, goods, and services. An eighth network, "Ask BUZ", provides 1-on-1 personal guidance to further assist users in locating available resources relative to their expressed interests and concerns.

By consistently providing high value educational content without banner ads, and by facilitating professional relationships between public/private resource providers and resource users, BUZGate serves to effectively aggregate the otherwise difficult to reach small business market. In 2007, BUZGate served over 1,700,000 small business users.

Public/private resource providers not only sponsor educational content that small businesses require to grow and compete effectively, but they also refer users to BUZGate to discover other needed resources, which leads to improved economic and social prosperity overall. In effect, BUZGate is collaborative network "Where all users receive value, and all add value."

Supporting the collaborative networking process are national organizations such as the U.S. Small Business Administration, Internal Revenue Service, Small Business Development Centers, Verizon, BizFilings, Amazon, American Express OPEN, Delta Dental and major utilities. Regional and state-based collaborators include local law firms, accounting firms, financial institutions, telecommunications providers, conference centers, financial advisers, human resource service providers, management consultants, software/hardware suppliers, insurance agencies, web development firms, and other business-to-business product and service categories.
