  • You can watch Small Business School on Texas Public Television stations.
  • Here are a few small business resources in Texas.
  • How we select a person and their business? People often wonder how people get selected to be part of these episodes of the show that were shot in Texas. We now rely heavily on the local Chambers of Commerce, Economic Development, and the leadership at your local PBS-member station.
  • Web Profiles. You can get listed here at no cost with a link to your web site. We invite all small businesses in the state who are love by the community and respected within your industry to register and be listed here.
  • Local TV Short profile.   Of all the names within the web listings, we will be asking our viewers to join with their local public television stations, local newspapers, and local Chambers of Commerce, Economic Development Commissions, Small Business Development Centers, and Small Business Investment Companies, to select businesses to profile on your local station just before and after each airing of Small Business School. Here is a sample of a one-minute profile.

    We will select at least 50% of our materials for a show from people who have been locally profiled on a show.
We invite your questions or comments.
