Occasionally, I will be using this space to share resources that I think are useful to small businesses or entrepreneurs.
The Resource: The Small Business Administration
“The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) was created in 1953 as an independent agency of the federal government to aid, counsel, assist and protect the interests of small business concerns, to preserve free competitive enterprise and to maintain and strengthen the overall economy of our nation.”
Why YOU Should Care:
The SBA website has resources for entrepreneurs in all stages of starting a business. In fact, they have resources for people who are just thinking about starting a business.
Noteworthy:
- Information about starting and managing your business.
- Details about the various financing options available to get you started and fund your business as it grows.
- A library of online training for each step of business creation.
- Access to counseling and mentoring resources in your local community.
- An online community of entrepreneurs where you can network and share advice.
