Success in small business comes from knowing how to effectively make the most out of every dollar you spend. That's especially true when it comes to advertising.

SCORE also conducts a series of FREE seminars for small businesses. Our next seminar on "Using the Internet in Your Business" will be offered on Monday, Sept. 15 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Brooksville Main Library, 238 Howell Avenue, Brooksville.
