How SCORE helped.

"I was at that point when I obtained my Business Consultant Certification 6 months ago. I had set business goals for myself to reach the Business Consultant level, and knew it was time for me to develop the consulting side of my business. I just didn't know how I could possibly do more with everything else I was already doing. That all changed one evening while sitting on our back porch talking with my cousin Eric Mankuta, who volunteers for SCORE. 

Eric asked, "Do you see the Big Picture of what having the Business Consultant Certification means?" I was only one of 19 in the country with that certification! The more we talked, the more excited I got! WOW! Could I really do some of the things he suggested?" The light bulb went ON! (Eric) gave me a totally new outlook on my business....and my future!

Do I have it all figured out yet? No....as with any business, mine is evolving. Thanks to Eric, though, our conversation on the back porch opened my eyes and propelled me into motion to make positive changes! I now have a clear direction where I'm going and a BETTER IDEA of how to get there.

At SCORE we encourage all our clients to try to work with each other. We do not recommend any client above another. And we remind each person that it is their responsibility to make their own determination before conducting business with anyone.
