Does anyone have experience working with a SBDC to get support and/or resources to assist with search?
I have a 1:1 with an Advisor Friday and I'm making a list of resources I think they could provide.

Appreciate any suggestions!

GIS Business Intelligence Reports
Enterprise access to services like orbis, d&b, etc.
Financial Models
CPA/Attorney Rec's
Industry Research
Local Market Research
Opportunities to apply for loans/grants through SSBCI 2.0 or other govt. programs

I guess the SBDC is a good place to start. In my experience, I think their effectiveness varies greatly by whose actually running the show there. If I recall, I met with an advisor on one or two occasions and quickly grew out of the resources they were able to provide.

Frankly, I wondered the same things, but figure it's worth a shot. I will report back anything the community may find of value
