New Business
Posted by Kayla Logeot on Souris Manitoba Talks.
Hello everyone!
Just wanted to take a moment to showcase my latest business adventure. Most of you know me from the Souris Valley Flyer, which opened up many opportunities for me in our lovely town! I started being part of more events/organizations and was being asked to help with certain things like ads, logos, websites, online posters, etc and I realized the need for it here in Souris. I have always loved technology and it comes to me fairly easily. I was approved for a small business grant recently and decided to use it to start this business to showcase the things that I can help with and have this completely separate from the Souris Valley Flyer. So take a look at my new business and website and all the things I can help your event, business, or organization with! Thanks for the continued support!
There is also a promo going on on my Facebook Page as well check it out!
