The Springfield SBDC and Rob Alexander (and many other advisors) have been a tremendous help in my business success. They have helped me with several projects over the years (video editing, accounting, Quickbooks, etc.) and most recently with my PPP loan application and forgiveness application. The PPP loan was very intimidating, they were super helpful and patient when helping me apply for it. I don’t understand why other business owners do not utilize these resources to their benefit… it’s what it’s there for. So incredibly grateful.

The SBDC has been invaluable in helping me to keep my business open during an extremely difficult time. Like many small businesses, I have been self-funded so had never reached out for financial assistance before and when the pandemic hit and pulled the rug out from under me, I didn’t know how I was going to stay afloat another month—let alone the rest of the year. Without the professional guidance of the people at SBDC, my business would not have survived this year.
