Very interesting indeed - Thank You!

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post, "Palin-tology: The study of Sarah Palin!"

I'm thinking of opening a small business so decided to do some research on Google. These two links may be of interest to your readers:

http://www.thesbcc.org/reports.php?WhereInd=&WherePur=aqu&extra_title=Acquisition (Entry 22)

and

URL (Entry 158)

Dear Anonymous:

Thank you for the links. In the case of the first one, it will take readers to the home page for the Small Business Funding Centre:


Quickly scanning its home page we found:

Where can I find grant information? You can find grant information by contacting each individual government department (there are over 60) and asking them to provide you with detailed information on the many funding opportunities they offer to small businesses. Of course this can be time consuming with phone calls and letters going back and forth. Alternatively, visit our program types and case studies pages or just phone toll-free 1-800-658-9792 to speak with one of our grants and loans representatives.

It would appear SBFC is a private company which assists clients wishing to start a business identify available government funding. We assume it makes money by charging a flat fee for its services or perhaps a small percentage of the grants received by applicants.

When we scrolled to Entry 22 as suggested this is what we found:

Category: Professional, Scientific and Technical Services Acquisition

Project Description: To acquire an insurance business

Business: Glorian Yakiwchuk Winnipeg, MB

Amount: $25,000.00

We did not reproduce the second URL because readers would receive the error message, "Windows Internet Explorer session timed out, log in again." However, Entry 158:

Category: Professional, Scientific and Technical Services Acquisition

Project Description: To establish an insurance business (business plan)

Business: Glorian Yakiwchuck Winnipeg, MB

Amount: $5,656.00

Very interesting indeed - Thank You!
