Welcome to your small business blog where cultivating the succcess of small business and the latest news from Dakota Certified Development Corporation is our focus.  For those of you who may not be familiar with a blog, a blog is a journal published by an individual or a small group of individuals and often themed on a single subject.  Our blog, the DakotaBlog, will journal ideas, answers, issues, and challenges facing the continued success of small businesses.  Our vision for this blog is not only for us to journal about these topics and the important issues surrounding small business, but that you, the reader, will see this as an interactive blog, allowing you to leave comments and even messages for each other.  It is this interactivity that distinguishes us from the rest. In a sense, this blog will not only produce content, but seek to build upon the relationships with our readers and other bloggers who focus on similar topics and issues.  We look forward, not back, and are excited to enter this form of social networking with our small businesses, our lending partners, our economic devleopment professionals, and your the reader.  We hope that you visit often and find the content useful.
