Small-business owners now have more ways to interact with other entrepreneurs on the Visa Business Network.
The online portal, which Visa Inc. first rolled out in 2008, is free to join for any owner. The San Francisco payments company on Wednesday said that in response to user feedback it added new features, including how-to guides with advice for meeting various business goals, avenues for business owners to seek out mentoring from other owners and the ability to post questions and answers.
Visa also added access to articles and other information resources that other members have deemed important.
"From step-by-step guidance on common business practices, to providing access to other small businesses that have overcome similar challenges, this site delivers a wealth of practical tools that support small businesses," Raghav Lal, the head of global small business for Visa, said in a press release.
