Ben Seidel to Serve on National Self-Employed Council

Ben Seidel of Igniting Business has been chosen to serve on the Member Council for the National Association for the Self-Employed (NASE). He was the recipient of the NASE's Future Entrepreneurship Scholarship in 2011. With his background in marketing, technology and website design, Seidel offers many services to clients in the realm of website development solutions, marketing material design and production, as well as technology services.

There are currently over 420,000 self-employed individuals in Missouri.

The council's purpose is to serve as a sounding board for NASE leadership regarding programs, services and benefits that could help make the NASE an even greater partner to the nation's micro-business owners (less than 10 employees) and the self-employed.

"The NASE is an incredible association, and I am very honored to participate on the Member Council. I look forward to working alongside the NASE to continue to create value for our members and display the importance of the self-employed and small business community in the U.S. economy," said Seidel.

"The NASE has a mission to better help and serve the small business community at large," said NASE President Kristie L. Arslan. "I am thrilled with the opportunity to work with the member council over the next year to strengthen and grow the association to be a bigger and better resource for the nation's job-creating businesses."
