3/17/13 - Lyon Township and the City of South Lyon will hold an event next month to kick off their new small business assistance program. The two municipalities have created the Business Assistance Team program to help small businesses by providing information and instruction about various obstacles they need to overcome. The April 11th open house at the Lyon Township hall will allow businesses to learn about the services offered by the program and apply for assistance from the team. To qualify a business must have been in business for at least two years, be for-profit, have at least two full-time employees, and have a storefront or be home-based. Lyon Township Downtown Development Authority Administrator Michelle Aniol says the BAT program will help small businesses with market research, developing a marketing plan, networking, and locating financial resources. For more information about the program or the open house, contact the City of South Lyon, the Lyon Township offices, or the township DDA. (TD)
