Building South Dakota

GOED, with the assistance of Dakota Resources, has compiled a survey to gather some much needed information on your organization, “Building South Dakota”, local workforce and marketing. Your input is important and we want you to be part of the process so we are asking you to take a few moments to share some information on your local economic development efforts in the survey linked below.

Please complete all pertinent fields and sections. Once we receive your responses we will share the aggregate results on staffing and salaries of local economic development offices (EDCs), number and capacity of local revolving loan funds, marketing efforts by local EDCs, etc.
