Anyone with a Chicago management job, or any small business owner in the Chicago area that’s facing trouble because of the current recession will soon have access to some much needed advice.

The Chicago Department of Business Affairs & Consumer Protection is planning to hose a workshop from 2-4 p.m. Feb. 26 at City Hall to help small business owners succeed despite the economy. This initial workshop will cover the day-to-day realities of operating a business and keeping jobs during the current recession. Anyone interested can register for the free workshop by calling (312) 744-5344.

“We want to see businesses in this city succeed, the workshop is packed with value that people can walk away with,” BACP Commissioner Norma I. Reyes said in a press release. “We want to provide businesses with information about the effects of today’s economy and give them motivation and expert advice to help keep them in the rink.”
