Microsoft announced a new alliance with Partner America on Friday designed to help small businesses venture into the world of e-commerce. Partner America, a public-private partnership between the United States Conference of Mayors and American Management Services, will be co-sponsoring a series of Microsoft "Big Day" seminars, workshops and roundtables at locations across the United States to teach small businesses how to succeed online. Partner America chairman George Cloutier told the E-Commerce Times that the key for small businesses on the Web is to take it slow and be cautious.
