Smarter Living presentations

Smarter Living is a program designed to take BBB representatives into our communities to share experiences and scenarios of issues we see in the local marketplace through interactive presentations. Our goal is to educate and prepare our local consumers to prevent falling victim to various scams. 

These presentations have a variety of relevant topics designed to help teens, seniors, military families and investors be better prepared in the marketplace.

Smarter Living for Students is a great presentation for teenagers transitioning into adulthood. They’ll be able to learn about buying a car, renting an apartment, the importance of credit, identity theft, job scams, and so much more. 

Smarter Living for Seniors covers topics such as grandparents scams, email scams, telemarketing schemes, Medicare Card scams, Identity Theft, and much more. 

Smart Investing helps protect potential investors from financial fraud by helping them recognize vulnerabilities, identify questionable  sales tactics, and remembering to Ask and Check the investment.
