"In our digital era many small businesses engage online through social media. So it can be easy to not develop strong speaking skills. But [speaking] can still be a game changer in how we're perceived by prospects and our clients. Remember, SCORE can help you learn sales strategy and craft your message."  Find out more.

Success Stories: Spice of Life
 
Stephanie Laybourne
Stephanie Laybourne knew how to make spices and seasonings her friends and family raved about, but when it came to sales and distribution, she was at a loss. She turned to SCORE to help her find the winning recipe for Stephanie's Seasonings. 
 
"The counselors I was hooked up with know business and have great ideas. I was a retired social worker trying my hardest to make it in a completely different world. Their sense of business acumen far surpassed mine and I was grateful for their advice. I venture to guess I wouldn't be where I am today without John Zuske's business sense. He is a true friend and a kind man as well. So, find yourself a good SCORE advisor and hold on!" Find out more.
