The relatively new Small Business E-commerce Support Program provides free e-commerce and digital marketing consulting services to New Jersey small businesses in the restaurant, retail and personal care industries that operate from a commercial location. Home-based businesses and non-profits are NOT eligible for this grant.
You’re limited to using one of seven NJEDA-approved consultancies for this work, and we couldn’t find any anecdotal reports regarding time-to-market and consultant backlog and quality. There are no wage requirements for this grant.
Services that may be free for your restaurant, retail store, or personal care business to have implemented under this grant:
- Website Development
- Website Optimization & SEO
- E-commerce Platform
- Online Ordering Platform
- Online Appointment Booking Platform
- Digital Marketing Plan
