“I have been part of Chemeketa's Small Business Development Center since 2007 when I bought my business. I have been able to benefit from all areas of their center from Mastermind Groups to Small Business Management courses and also training and networking events as well.

The SBDC has become a family of business advisers for me and I am now giving back as an adviser myself, in the areas of retail systems and inventory management, and in the area of business start ups.

You might see me teaching you about the vast resources available through the center, teaching a SBM class on systems or customer experience, or just stopping in to say hello!”
