After opening back in back in September, 2007, Smart Choice Auto Sales is well on it’s way to success.  They have continued to grow the past 7 months.  Also of note is the fact that they have a new web address: http://www.smartchoiceusedcars.com, though http://www.smartautocredit.net will still work.

Smart Choice Auto Sales is located at 916 Rollins Road in Round Lake Heights, IL 60073 next to Richard’s Chicken.

Here are a couple of quick resources to boost your business, get started, or get your creative juices flowing and come up with some great ideas.

SCORE (http://www.score.org): This is a non-profit organization that provides FREE (we love FREE around here) advice and counseling to small businesses.  You can check out the existing resources on their website, e-mail a counselor (they usually get back to you extremely quickly), or set up an appointment to meet with a counselor.  They were there to help in the extremely early developmental stages of UrbanMelt.com

Startup Nation (http://www.startupnation.com)  Startup Nation is another FREE resource with great articles and a community of experts to help with almost any venture you can dream up.  You can get a lot of ideas and get your ideas critiqued in Startup Nation’s forums.  We have gained valuable insight by getting constructively criticized in the forums.

LOCAL Na8ion (http://www.localna8ion.com)  Last, but not least, is LOCAL Na8ion.  You may have noticed that we’ve mentioned them before.  It’s for good reason.  LOCAL Na8ion falls right in line with what UrbanMelt.com is all about, providing assistance and resources to the small business owner out there who wants/needs to be noticed.  Why run a business if people aren’t going to find you.  “If you build it, they will come”, happens under perfect conditions.  LOCAL Na8ion shows you how to put up your own, easy-to-edit web site AND how to market it, all for (you guessed it) FREE!  Implement some of the strategies that Julian Seery Gude of LOCAL Na8ion talks about and you should see a noticeable increase in your business.

Come on back now ya hear,

***note: UrbanMelt.com is being completely overhauled as we speak.  Our goal is late April 2008, if all goes according to plan.

This (zine) can be about whatever you, the reader, would like. You can become the writer, the photographer, the artist!

We can use all the help we can get as there’s only so much our limited resources allow us to get together in a single month.

Lattitude is a free publication out of Louisville, KY collectively written with content and artwork provided by it’s community of readers. Essentially our reader base is our staff. Lattitude is based on principles of free will, individual liberty and do it yourself fundamentals.

In our current form, we’re your standard issue half size, black and white zine. As soon as we have a couple advertisers on board, along with an expanded reader base we will expand to a full size magazine style format. Lattitude will always remain a free publication, not only in the aspect of obtaining each issue but simply in the ability to publish information on whatever topic we deem necessary. Never doubt that.
