  • Competitive Edge

    "With the help of SBDC business student interns and the other resources that the SBDC provided, I was able to see what my competition was doing, what the standard expectations of my industry are and where I need to be to have the competitive edge." -  Cheryl Sment of Interstate Sealant & Concrete Inc.

  • Eye Opener

    "The Business Plan Boot Camp was a real eye-opener in terms of letting you know that you can't just turn the key and go." - Roy Magsamen, RM Small Engine Repair, LLC

  • Future Development

    “Bud helped me get my financials into a pro forma that I could use to get financing for the capital equipment I needed for my business. He has been very influential as far as introducing me to potential customers and government entities." - Dr. William Hubbard founder of Cytophil, a medical device development and manufacturing company

  • Results

    "Our company is very pleased and excited with the results. It’s even more exciting to see an increase in our revenue stream. It couldn’t have come at a better time. For 20 years, I did not know about the SBDC. I want other Wisconsin businesses to know about and take advantage of this great resource.”
    Gary Kuehneman, Director of Business Development for Schenck AccuRate
