If I only had more…

Running a business takes a lot of “more” things, including:

· More time. There never are enough hours in the day to see to all the necessities, from sending invoices to drumming up more customers to keeping up with current trends.
· More money. If you need to expand physical space or increase staff, an initial influx of cash would help until the start-up expenses are met by increased productivity and income.
· More energy. Working extra long hours, worrying about cash flow or finding just the right way of dealing with your payroll taxes can sap your strength – especially when it seems like the problems never end.
· More help. Take the time to talk with your lawyer, accountant and insurance agent when questions come up. Correct advice will prevent a disaster in the future.

What are some of the problems you are facing? SCORE counselors are ready and willing to help you with some fresh insights and different perspectives.

It’s easy to find SCORE:

    Friends give business advice freely but many times the different suggestions, or recommendations are in direct conflice. It can be tough to process all this conflicting information. We have to remember that it’s okay to listen to those “friends” but also to recognize that they will not live with the results of their suggestions. However you the owner of the business wil in fact live with the results so be sure to process all that advice and then do what YOU decide is correct and what YOU decide you can live with, right or wrong!
