The Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the SC Lowcountry SCORE Chapter, is helping small businesses grow their presence online with a Get Your Business Online workshop, which will feature a lesson about reaching customers online. The workshop will be hosted Aug. 8, 2018 at USCB, 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m.

Get Your Business Online with Google brings community members, business owners, and civic leaders together to help small businesses succeed on the web.  

"The Beaufort Regional Chamber and the Lowcountry SCORE chapter support local businesses and want to see them thrive," says Blakely Williams, President & CEO of the Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce. "This exciting partnership with Google provides another level of education and awareness to help our business community continue to grow and succeed."

"4 out of 5 consumers use search engines to find local information nearby, yet only 37% of businesses have claimed their listing on a search engine," says Emily Harris, Manager of Google's Get Your Business Online program. "Small businesses are the engine of local economies and when they flourish, their communities do as well."
