SBA Plays Small Business Match Maker
With three matchmaking events during National Small Business Week, the SBA is looking to spark a little love between small business owners and government contractors.  Networking is everything--especially when it comes to landing prime contracting opportunities. The U.S. Small Business Administration, better known as the SBA, announced Thursday that it is giving such meetings a nudge by hosting three business matchmaking events during National Small Business Week, which takes place June 16-21. The goal, according to the SBA, is to allow small businesses to have face-to-face meetings with prime contractors and federal agencies to learn about contracting and subcontracting opportunities. With this move, the SBA joins a vibrant entrepreneurial matchmaking scene, which features outfits such as CoFoundersLab, EntireLeague, and ActSeed, dubbed "eHarmony for startups and investors."

5 Tips to Keep Your Brand Relevant
Use these tips to help your brand gain new-found relevancy. The alternative is death.
All brand managers would love to have a brand that is hot, relevant and shows the kind of retail velocity that we all dream about. Unfortunately, this doesn't always happen.

This reinvention could come in the form of marketing, product innovation, technology, or a totally new product value proposition. But getting to that point could be a challenge. The first step is for brands to recognize their importance in this ever-changing consumer marketplace.
Here are five more tips to help you gain new-found relevancy:
