Success Stories
To Market, To Market
 Launching a new product is a daunting task. In addition to the planning, accounting, reporting and recordkeeping requirements of any business, you also have to handle product design and development, sourcing, manufacturing, branding, marketing and distribution. Linda Anderson connected with the Phoenix SCORE office after hearing from a fellow inventor how much SCORE helped her in taking her product to market.
"Using SCORE has helped my small business, LS Designs, compete in a marketplace filled with larger companies with more resources. Sometimes the SCORE executives, with their real-life and varied experience, have provided an answer to a specific question, and sometimes they simply reassure me I am on the right track." Find out more.
