Success Stories
It has been a pleasure to be able to network with SBDC throughout the years. It has been a resource that I have leaned on when the need arises. It is comforting to have Tom Goldner as a resource – he is always looking to share his real-world business experience and background in a mentoring capacity
Juan Giron - Alien Engineered Products
Rick Paul was a great help with putting together my package for the banks. Without his input, I’m sure the process would have taken longer.
Greg Bacon - Plastic Masters International
The SBDC has always responded with an answer when we had a question. I have Phil’s cell number on my speed dial, and he is my first ‘go-to’ resource for business assistance.
Kathryn and Kevin McMonigle - Solar Lights & More
The value I have received from the SBDC is incredible. They have many great resources such as free webinars on a variety of useful topics. But the best thing about the SBDC is the one-on-one consulting with experts in various fields.
Heather Ferman - Heather Ferman Flamework Beads
When we met with Veronica and Jaime, they helped me focus on the next step. Now my products are in three stores in Jacksonville and I am taking phone orders. I am constantly adjusting my recipes and packaging, aiming to sell to big brands, step-by-step with the help of the SBDC
Danmary Brito - Succulent Food Jax
I recommend the SBDC every time someone asks about business coaching or start-up assistance! I’m in a lot of social media groups for entrepreneurs in a few different fields and people ask about business coaching all the time. I let them know how helpful the SBDC has been for me and encourage them to reach out and talk to someone to see if SBDC can be helpful for them too.
Alexia Lewis - Keeping Healthy Simple Club
It has been a pleasure growing our business with Cathy as our guiding light. I can’t imagine growing our business to this level without tapping into the resources that the SBDC has shared with us. I look forward to many more years of business success with the SBDC and Cathy as our partner. – Owner, Dennis Chan

Seeing people captivated and smiling after they have tasted one of my creations is a delight.
