The
British
Chambers of Commerce and
Dell have launched the
Small Business Advice
television channel in collaboration with
Intel.
Hosted by Sean Walsh, former anchor on CNBC,
www.smallbusinessadvice.tv
is promising expert commentary and advice from industry
experts.
It also provides short downloadable 'how to' tips on key
subjects, together with small business case studies.
The channel launches this Friday (28 November) and coincides
with research on 755 SMBs, which found the following key
points:
- 25% of respondents felt existing TV programmes dumbed down the
public's perception of real business people
- 27% also thought these programmes didn't help viewers deal with
real business situations
- 74% said they would be interested in more relevant specialist
business programming for small businesses on the internet, for live
viewing or downloading.
"I meet with businesses every day and have often heard criticism
about the usefulness of a great deal of current business
programming," said John Dunsmure, managing director at the British
Chambers of Commerce. Smallbusinessadvice.tv is designed to plug
this gap for targeted and highly practical content."
