TESTIMONIAL
"After a year of struggling with my new business I sought out the services of AK SBDC. My counselor helped me brainstorm, focus, and develop marketing strategies with specific detail. Our monthly sessions kept me on track and accountable to achieve my marketing goals. These on-going sessions helped me explore new ideas with a fresh set of eyes. I am thankful to have both a coach and cheerleader in the AK SBDC."
