“We contacted the SBDC…a lot of people don’t speak two languages like we do, and it’s very difficult if you don’t have that asset with you, Jaime is that asset for the SBDC and he’s helped us a lot in different areas of the business – how to grow it. We feel more comfortable speaking Spanish, and Jaime, as a bi-lingual consultant at the SBDC, has made this process easier.”

“I started by doing the STARTUP class, then met with my consultant on a five-year plan and started looking for locations. Working with SBDC, what I really enjoy is the encouragement, someone there to tell you that you can do it. I think the biggest benefit is the connections and resources they provide to us, the small business owners. To have an SBDC consultant with you, is to have someone guiding you along the way – I would recommend to any potential business owner, from concept or idea, to see if it’s a marketable idea, to success.”

A Testimony to the SBDC
“The SBDC helped put us in a good direction – our consultant was always there advocating for us. And especially in the last year with the pandemic, it was a no-brainer that I called the SBDC!”
