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

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.

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

We really appreciate the assistance we received from the Small Business Development Center and feel fortunate to have had the resource.

The help and resources that I have been given for free is incredible and I have even shared the information with many of my healthcare colleagues due to how involved and supportive the team has been. Just how much everyone is personally vested in my clinic and success is just so appreciated!

Dr. Geist has always made himself available and has been there to answer my questions, provide advice, and make suggestions. I look forward to working with him as we renovate and move into the new facility.

SBDC has helped me to refocus my business and point me in the right direction on how to market and grow my company.

Cheryl explained which programs to apply for, what the exact terms were and when I asked about the possibility of refinancing my building, she also ran me through some scenarios and possibilities.

You build a house from the ground up, and the SBDC is an incredible resource available to build a strong foundation for long-term success and growth of a company

We have had a terrific partnership with the SBDC for several years.  The team at the SBDC has provided us with valuable assistance and guidance which has contributed to our bottom line profitability.  This year they have been particularly helpful as we expand our services to ensure the company continues to thrive.
