In episode 6, we "Reimagine" small town America from a bottoms-up, grassroots standpoint based on the very local, very hands on experience and knowledge of Becky McCray, who is co-author of an award-winning book called Small Town Rules, which draws from her real world experiences in small town business, community, and government. That includes work as a small town administrator, a non-profit executive, an antiques store owner, a business and computer consultant, and a newspaper reporter.
Becky also shares her many pearls of wizdom via SmallBizSurvival.com on Facebook, Twitter and her own podcasts. She's also a co-founder of SaveYour.Town.
