CB&I Program Testimonials

"Without the support we received from PTAC, our application for the USDA Families to Farmers Food Box program would not have been impossible. The guidance offered by PTAC allowed for an incredibly successful USDA contract for over $400k to our local farmer-owned business." - Puget Sound Food Hub Cooperative

"I appreciate the SBDC resources, especially the webinars and the great advice that comes with these. There are resources at SBDC I would never have access to as a very small business, and I appreciate that very much." - Steven 

"Thank you, WCWB, for the chance to give a big shout-out to the professional, knowledgeable, encouraging coaches who have helped create my solo-preneural journey.  I would not have wanted to walk this road without them.  They have been accessible and supportive during times when I have felt especially vulnerable; feeling like I should know all of this already.  They build me up with information, resources, expertise, and cheers to KEEP GOING.  You have my gratitude, WCWB.  Your work empowers women in deeply impactful ways.  <3" - Sherrie Homer

"SBDC has provided an amazing amount of support as I develop and start my business. I would be years behind in knowledge and resources had it not been for SBDC." – Meegan C

"We are a pre-launch startup with a lot to learn. SBDC helped us to clarify certain aspects of our business (including best practices for online sales), which assisted immensely in planning our launch and being able to articulate the opportunity in a real and compelling way to potential backers." – Eric B

“The ScaleUp TuneUp training has given me the tools to create a more efficient business.  For years my business has consumed my life – I worked every position, 7 days a week 24 hours a day and rarely had time off.  TuneUp has shown me how to implement systems and put together a team.  I have now taken the role of the CEO and our company practically runs itself.” – Marty Marstrom, Meridian Care Home
