Small Bizz MBA (Marketing, Branding & Advertising) was created as a solution to a problem not being addressed in the marketplace today. Having previously created a franchise model of high quality, low cost direct-mail publications that focused on hyper-local geographic areas, Don Kyle, founder, was frustrated seeing small business advertisers come and go. Most had little or no idea of how to implement their marketing plans; in fact, very few had a plan at all. The majority of these businesses simply copied what their competitors did or simply received advice from friends, affiliates and media sales people. There was virtually no place for small businesses to turn to get unbiased guidance and support in developing their own marketing, branding and advertising plans. This is where Small Bizz MBA steps in and provides affordable solutions with our Software as a Service (SaaS) based eLearning business model.
