A HUGE event is coming to Tampa in August – the 2012 Republican National Convention. Over 50,000 people are expected to visit Tampa Bay in just one week. Which means great opportunities for local small businesses to put their names on the map. Event organizers will be looking for vendors and suppliers. Services, such as  accommodations, catering, transportation, retail, printing and deliveries will be in high demand.

So what’s the first source of information visitors will turn to when arranging food deliveries, airport transportation and lodging? Internet, of course!
