Client Testimonials
US Bullnosing, Inc., Oakland Park
US Bullnosing received loans such as the [SBA] Paycheck Protection Program and the Economic Injury Disaster Loan, which allowed us to remain open, purchase more equipment, and maintain jobs for the people on our team. Without the Florida SBDC at FAU, it would not have been possible to obtain my dream of becoming a small business owner.
Ozgur AvsarFore Life, Inc., Lauderhill
The most helpful tool I learned from George [Florida SBDC consultant] was how to develop a strategic plan for the growth of my non-profit organization. As the Chief Everything Officer, he really helped me focus on things that would lead to sustainability.
