What is the Hampton Retail Assistance Program?
It's a centralized referral and guidance service designed to direct Hampton retailers to whatever resources they need to be successful. You can choose any or all of these services:
- Assessment Checklist - We can help you take a practical look at your business to accurately assess what you might need to reach your business goals, including marketing, management and financial assistance.
- Resource Treasure Chest - We work with the region's business resources and can help direct you to the ones that fit your needs. These resources range from business loan programs to the Small Business Development Center.
- Financing Options - If you need a loan, we can advise you on how to qualify and which loan programs best match what you need.
- Site Selection - If you're looking for space to lease or buy, we can help you identify available space and provide market data needed to evaluate an area.
- Data Tracking Bank - Are you trying to identify the market for your product or service? Want to find out about local customer demographics and psychographics? We have a library of market research and trend information that can help you answer these questions.
- City Hall Buddy - If you are starting a retail business in Hampton, our staff can offer you step-by-step guidance that turns red tape into red carpet treatment.
- Workshops - In a highly competitive industry like retail, business training can be a valuable tool for learning how to get ahead and stay ahead. We partner with business consulting agencies to offer workshops and targeted training.
