Rural entrepreneurs with disabilities are getting a chance to boost their business profiles. Community Futures recently launched their annual Just Watch Me! video contest.
Just Watch Me! offers these entrepreneurs the chance to win up to $1,000, along with other prizes. The winner also gets a lot of media exposure, which will help their business be more successful. Everyone who enters the contest will win a prize.
To enter, entrepreneurs must create a business profile and then make a short video to submit. The video should include details about the individual鈥檚 journey through entrepreneurship. The videos will be judged on how well they answer a set of questions provided.
More detailed information, instructions and application forms can be found at www.justwatchmecontest.ca.
Community Futures is a non-profit agency that was developed to strengthen rural economies by helping entrepreneurs and small businesses reach their potential. They are putting on this contest through their Entrepreneurs with Disabilities Program (EDP). Through EDP, Community Futures provides business advice, training, mentorship and access to business loans to the entrepreneurs.
