Talking to David helped us to focus and get a clearer idea of where to start. He provided honest suggestions, information and resources that matched our current needs. We have concrete steps to take now, and so much helpful information to guide our planning and vision. We are getting up to speed, and feeling like we are moving in the right direction now. Thank you!
Business Link is extremely helpful. Maureen answered all my questions and so much more. She made me feel more confident with my plans and guided me in the right direction. I wish I had contacted Business Link sooner but I am so happy that I found them today! Thank you so much!!
