PITTSFIELD -- 1Berkshire has announced its upcoming slate of technical assistance offerings through the Berkshire Economic Recovery Program.
The winter 2025 program includes three cohorts: "Building a Social Media Marketing Strategy" (full; waitlist open); "Let's Jumpstart Your Crowdfunding Campaign"; and "Let Robots Do The Work: AI Tools for Small Business Success."
These cohorts will each provide up to seven participating organizations/businesses support through a two-hour kickoff workshop and resources, followed by up to two additional hours of one-on-one direct targeted technical assistance by a paid provider.
1Berkshire, through competitive grant funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is able to provide this high-impact service at no cost to businesses, entrepreneurs and organizations located in any of the 32 cities and towns of Berkshire County, representing a more than $1,000 direct value per business in each cohort.
Through its series of cohorts spanning nearly four years, the Technical Assistance series has been able to support more than 200 businesses through targeted training and focused convenings, resulting in notable business improvements, and quantified by over $2,500,000 in funding collectively accessed by businesses through their participation.
