Consumer Watch: The BBB strives to help businesses grow

The Better Business Bureau's mission is and has always been to help commerce

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - The Better Business Bureau is relentless in its pursuit to aid commerce, wherever possible. Traditionally known for its accreditation system and consumers' ability to research and file complaints, the BBB has grown to do much more.

Teaming up with other business generators the BBB offers businesses and consumers the tools needed to improve commerce. Among their more popular tools, the BBB's Scam Tracker educates users on the latest fraudulent schemes in their area.

The BBB prides itself in its efforts to help businesses grow. Case in point on April 29 & 30, the BBB and the Yuma Southwest Contractor's Association will host a Career & Trades Fair at the Yuma County Fairgrounds.

But, the BBB also makes house calls, according to John Hessinger the BBB's Community Development Director companies and organizations alike can request a BBB presentation. In those presentations, a BBB representative can detail all the services provided by the BBB.
