The expertise Adriana [Florida SBDC consultant] was able to provide us is invaluable. She was able to help us out throughout the entire year, especially during Covid. Besides being able to help us with our marketing, business strategy, finance, and advertising goals, it undoubtedly helped us structure our business for 2021. We are looking forward to [the Florida SBDC] being our valued partner in 2021 and beyond.

Mike Bell [Florida PTAC consultant] is beneficial; there is no doubt. We could not have entered the federal marketplace without his support and knowledge!
