The Small Business Development Center offers practical counseling geared to your specific needs. Counseling is provided by experienced business advisors through FREE and confidential, in-depth counseling and training for start-up, existing and home-based businesses.
Counseling is available on business plans, loan requirements, start-up steps, cash flow projections, recordkeeping, marketing, requirements for hiring employees, government procurement, and the application process for women/minority-owned business certification. The Research Network can provide demographics, industry trends, statistical data, trade associations and suppliers.
An objective, fresh perspective is provided to entrepreneurs in Chemung, Schuyler and Steuben counties at any stage of business development by appointment, e-mail or phone. In addition to the Corning office at 24 Denison Parkway West, services are available at Airport Corporate Park, Bath, the Academic and Workforce Development Center in Elmira, Hornell and Watkins Glen.
SBDC Success Story
When Jim Balcerek had the opportunity to buy the Corning Art & Frame shop, he contacted business advisor Scott Bloor from the SBDC. Scott provided assistance in developing a business plan with cash flow projections to finance the business.
"Scott Bloor was indispensable in developing the loan proposal," said Jim. "The Small Business Development Center is one of our business community's greatest assets; not only for start-ups but for existing businesses."
