The Rodwells worked with the Alaska Small Business Development Center (SBDC) to purchase their now thriving business.

Bill Rodwell and Grayson

We could not have made our smooth transition into being business owners without the help of Julie Nolen at the Alaska SBDC. Taking the steps toward purchasing a business seemed quite daunting and an internet search led us to the Alaska SBDC website, where our journey began. Julie Nolen helped us move forward with confidence and assisted us with numerous steps in the process, from financing options, writing a business plan, and forecasting all the way to getting our business license.  We greatly appreciate the resources at the Alaska SBDC.”  

In working with the Rodwells on their business purchase, Alaska SBDC business advisor Julie Nolen recalled, “I first met Bill Rodwell in the Summer of 2017 when he attended a Starting a Business workshop in my office. Bill and his wife, Jodi, were looking to purchase a thriving cabin rental business in Talkeetna. Over the course of about 9 months, I had the pleasure of meeting with Bill and Jodi on numerous occasions. I helped them review the company financials to determine the viability of the venture, assisted with creating financial projections, and assisted throughout the process of financing the business. Bill and Jodi are smart, kind people with a passion for raising their family, while building a business in their community. I have really enjoyed getting to know them and providing them with small business assistance.”
