You're the heart and soul of your business--but while you have the vision and the motivation, you may not have the number sense. To get a grip on your business finances, begin by finding out the important accounting terms every entrepreneur should know.
"I first came to SCORE after I had been in business for over a year and was already doing everything wrong. I attended a SCORE business plan workshop, and it was off to the races from there!
My mentor, Mike Scotto, took me under his wing and helped me with my business plan and to get financing to grow my business to the next level. I am currently manufacturing overseas and distributing worldwide. Without SCORE, none of this would have been possible!"
