Dear Visitors,

Welcome to the web site of the Ohio Small Business Development Center at Youngstown State University!

Our web site is intended to provide useful information, and online access, to many of our services for existing and new businesses in Mahoning, Trumbull and Ashtabula Counties.

The SBDC web site is a dynamic resource for entrepreneurs. You can check our calendar of training programs, the "Consultant's Corner" for topics of interest, current business articles, featured "Client Showcase," 1st Stop Business Connection, Business Start-Up Guide, upcoming E-Commerce Information, web links and more. A unique feature of our site is "Ask the Consultant." In that section you will be able to receive some consulting services electronically, through our web site and email.

The SBDC staff is very excited about this new way of being available to reach the entrepreneurs of the area. We also encourage you to give us your feedback on our site. If you have any suggestions for topics you would like discussed, or features that may be helpful to you, please let us know!

Our staff is also eager to provide one-on-one assistance to the existing and start-up businesses in the area. Give us a call at 330.746.3350, and we will schedule an appointment to meet with you. There is no fee for our consulting services, and they are held in strict confidence.

Thank you again for taking the time to visit our web site. We hope to meet with you soon to discuss your business venture.

Sincerely,

Patricia K. Veisz
