Great people. Mike and Nancy to name a couple.

This group is very helpful for startup companies.

Wonderful services

I would say the Small Business Development Center has helped my business by keeping me accountable of where my business is going. Its hard to know the steps to take in a process when you are new to the business world. The SBDC is a great resource because Hannah takes time to analyze what you personally want from being in business and she helps you to find the tools needed to get the results. She has helped me set up my web page, determine my marketing focus, find resources that will assist me to flourish in my business. She acts a sounding board and guides and directs when needed. When my sister came up with a logo for my business, Hannah gave me input on how that particular image was hard to read, didnt convey the message for my business, and looked outdated and tired. A friend would not be able to give that sort of concrete criticism because they would worry about hurting your feelings. The Small Business Development Center and Hannah Bretz give you input that helps you put your best foot forward. Input from an experienced professional helps your business look polished and forward-thinking and I appreciate the time spent getting this expert advice.

Great place to learn to start a business, very resourceful and knowledgeable staff!

I worked with Hannah, Kayla and Wendy building the marketing and business plan for the Mankato Makerspace project. There are some really valuable tools the SBDC provides and I always walk away with a better perspective and new knowledge!

It is insane how many resources they provide, and completely free of charge. They take seriously their responsibility to be in the know about everything small business.

Learned a lot.

Good guys!!
