“We are excited to bring this unique educational opportunity to local small businesses, to really get under the hood of how these dramatic success stories took place,” said Dominic Miraglia, Cbeyond’s Los Angeles Vice President and General Manager. “We couldn’t think of a better way to teach small businesses on how to overcome their biggest obstacles than to partner with Inc., a leading source of expert content along with real business owners who have been through it and succeeded.”
“Inc. Magazine was designed 30 years ago for entrepreneurs and small businesses to help them grow, and today we remain focused on helping companies grow with useful information,” said Inc.
