About the Broadcasts of Small Business School:
The current show: Air times and Overview. Our open letter about how most commercial television is "encouraging the weak, confusing the marginal and weakening the strong." We all must support our local public television stations. Small Business School is actively working to support state-wide shows about small business. Watch our tribute to MainePBS's "Made in Maine." Also, for our station managers, the business model: http://SmallBusinessSchool.org/CPB. We answer the question, "How do we select a person and their business?" Our mission statement opens the way to a discussion about the name of this show, the background and our history. We invite your questions or comments
