A Counseling Center of the Massachusetts Small Business Development Center Network
Contributing to the economic and entrepreneurial growth of
Massachusetts since 1980 - Your Success is Our Business!
The Central Massachusetts SBDC is located on the campus of Clark University.
We provide free and confidential one-to-one management advice and technical
assistance to prospective and existing small businesses.
Our business advisors will assist clients in developing their business plans, marketing plans, financials, cash flows and other areas critical to ensure a successful venture. Often times, we will also act as a common access point for financing, and upon evaluation by our staff, can recommend or even introduce owners to the appropriate federal, state or local financing sources. We also work actively with local banks and the SBA, especially when SBA loan guarantees may be required to finance the venture or expansion. Our clientele includes start-up, early stage, expanding and troubled businesses. All programs are offered to the public on a non-discriminatory basis and are handicapped accessible. Please call to set up an appointment. See directions.
