The U.S. Small Business Blueprint is best used with help from the U.S. Small Business Development Center (SBDC). The SBDC is a future-ready organization that can assist you in all aspects of business where expert guidance is needed. They have a deep knowledge of the fundamental principles of business and how to apply them to your unique situation. (The SBDC is a no-charge service. It’s funded by our tax dollars.)
