OverviewThe Shenandoah Valley Small Business Development Center (SV SBDC) can help you start, manage, and grow your business.We serve the experienced owner who wants to expand a business, solve business problems, do strategic planning, develop new ideas, enter new markets, or access expansion capital. Our consulting services are free and confidential, usually at our Harrisonburg or Fishersville offices, but we also offer appointments in Lexington, Monterey, Verona, and Luray. We also serve the aspiring entrepreneur who needs to understand the requirements for going into business, financial management issues, marketing issues and techniques, business plan development and implementation, and the qualifications for obtaining start-up funds. If you are thinking about starting a new business, we recommend you begin by attending one of our Plan It / Start It seminars and/or working on your Outline of a Business Plan before making an appointment. Before you come for your first appointment, we need you to complete our Request for Counseling Form. You can print a .pdf copy here or use the on-line form found here.
We would also like you to complete this Pre-Counseling Questionnaire. Bring these with you to your meeting. (These forms are in Adobe Acrobat format. The reader is free and may be downloaded from the Adobe website.) |
