My name is Salma Ali, and I am a Senior at CHS and the founder of Bridge to Growth. At Bridge to Growth, my mission is to serve as an immersive platform that not only showcases Coronado businesses but also acts as a catalyst for their growth and success. I firmly believe in bridging the gap between small businesses and big businesses, recognizing the potential for mutual benefits.

Through our comprehensive marketing and advertising strategies, we go above and beyond to promote and highlight the businesses we collaborate with. We create regular posts on our platform, which includes our Instagram page and website, to keep the audience engaged and informed about the latest events and products of our partner businesses. By leveraging social media and online platforms, we ensure that our partners receive maximum exposure and visibility to a wider audience.

However, our commitment doesn't stop at mere promotion. We understand the importance of forging valuable relationships and connections in the business world. That's why we actively connect our partner small businesses with big-name partners in Coronado, creating opportunities for collaboration and growth. Our networking events serve as a platform for small businesses to interact with more experienced businesses, fostering meaningful connections that can lead to valuable partnerships and growth opportunities.

We take pride in being more than just a marketing platform; we are a growth facilitator. Our ultimate goal is to empower the small businesses of Coronado by helping them expand their reach and access larger retail stores. By facilitating strategic partnerships and collaborations with larger businesses, we aim to provide our partners with the necessary resources and opportunities for growth and expansion.

In essence, Bridge to Growth is a comprehensive solution for small businesses seeking to thrive in a competitive market. Through our marketing expertise, valuable connections, and strategic partnerships, we strive to create a supportive ecosystem that nurtures the growth and success of both small and big businesses.
