Delivers Big Company Advantages to Independent Businesses through "Goliath Clout(SM)"

MANCHESTER, N.H. -- BizUnite announced today the launch of its Independent Business Platform, a tool that helps independent businesses (Davids) compete with their larger competitors (Goliaths).

BizUnite's Independent Business Platform delivers "Goliath Clout(SM)" by offering tools such as cost-savings (deeply discounted options on insurance, credit card processing, consumer financing, shipping, etc.), best practices, training and marketing specifically designed to increase sales and reduce costs. The platform also moves to unite and strengthen independent businesses by leveraging Web 2.0 technologies to help them network and collaborate with similar independents.

Backed by retail giant CCA Global Partners, BizUnite delivers "Goliath Clout(SM)" to independent businesses and organizations of independents alike, while allowing them to maintain their unique identity and independence. For nearly a quarter of a century, CCA Global has partnered with entrepreneurial retailers to create a cooperative retail powerhouse. Aggregate annual sales volume for the more than 3,600 participating stores of CCA Global's affiliated companies' reaches well into the billions. Now, with BizUnite, independent businesses and organizations of independents can benefit directly from CCA Global's unmatched buying power of goods and services.

"Traditionally, corporate business services and overall cost-savings have favored the large, wealthy conglomerates, making it ever more difficult for the independent business to prosper," said Howard Brodsky, CEO of BizUnite and Chairman/Founder of CCA Global Partners. "In the creation of BizUnite, we deliver the tools necessary to replicate this successful environment for a broad independent business community."

BizUnite offers a remarkable solution for independents to thrive, allowing them to reach far beyond the limitations of being the "little guy" and to compete against much bigger corporate conglomerates. BizUnite also partners with organizations of independents to deliver tools that promote group benefits, grow memberships and streamline communication.

"The business environment is tumultuous and independent businesses don't want to navigate their way alone," said Evan Hackel, President of BizUnite. "BizUnite offers these businesses advantages that were never before possible in this market sector. The independent business now has the combination of Goliath Clout and nimbleness necessary to not only survive, but to thrive in an ever increasingly complex and competitive global marketplace."
