Are you looking to expand your facility in the
near future? Do you know someone who might want to open a new
business in Garden Grove, but can’t find the space? The Economic
Development Department has partnered with LoopNet in order to
provide a Commercial Property Search feature on its web page,
allowing online users the ability to access listings of all
commercial property available for sale or lease in Garden Grove.
LoopNet is a leading commercial real estate information services
provider and operates the largest and most heavily trafficked
commercial real estate listing service online with more than 2.5
million registered members and 910,000 unique visitors monthly. To
access this feature, visit our website at
http://www.ggbusiness.org
and click on the “Commercial Property Search” link, located at the
bottom of the search panel on the left hand side of your computer
screen. You will then be prompted to answer a few questions to
narrow your search (sale or lease, property type, square footage,
price range, etc.). Once you hit submit, all locations matching your
request will soon appear!
We are also excited to host and co-sponsor the second in a series
of training workshops designed to better your business and help you
succeed. If you want to learn “Effective Marketing Strategies to
Grow Your Business”, this course is for you! This class will be
taught by an OCSBDC consultant and is packed with ideas, tools and
techniques that will show you how to maximize your business
visibility. You will learn how to attract new customers, keep
existing ones, generate leads, cultivate referrals, develop your
image and grow and expand your network and database to increase your
bottom line! This seminar will take place on Wednesday, April 23,
2008 from 6:00 to 8:30 PM in the “B” room at the Garden Grove
Community Meeting Center. To register for this class, contact the
