Business Retention and Expansion (BRE) Program Employer Visitation Program New jobs don't come from just outside a community; rather, they are created by existing businesses. In fact, most economists say up to 80 or 90 percent of all new jobs come from internal growth. Small Business Division staff conducts visitations and interviews to local businesses to gather industry specific information, inform them about city services and address their needs. BRE interview results provide tactical and direct assistance to businesses that are expanding, in need of financial or management technical assistance, workforce development, or those at risk of leaving the city of Phoenix. A new portfolio management system creates a foundation for all participating businesses to receive ongoing assistance, which, in turn, should help them stay, grow and expand with our community. |
