Client Testimonials
Klimek Electrical Motor Co, Inc., Pompano Beach
Angel Rentas [Florida SBDC consultant] has been an angel for our business. Without his assistance, we would have never obtained a [SBA PPP and EIDL] disaster loan and the loan to buy the business.
Ryszard KlimekReflections Landscape Maintenance, Inc. dba PALM, Deerfield Beach
Mr. Lasi [Florida SBDC consultant] helped maintain our business through Covid-19 by helping us acquire the [SBA] PPP loan. He spent much time with me and went above and beyond. Mr. Lasi helped our profit grow by connecting us with additional SBA advisors in different areas. Mr. Lasi was my go-to person who answered all questions and who continues to be a person who clearly delineates the steps that would enhance our business.
