One Person Or A Team
The counselor chosen to serve you has experience that most closely parallels your needs. But no one is an expert in every type of business. So your SCORE counselor may call in other SCORE members for their special expertise.

Your counselor - or team - meets with you personally and as frequently as necessary. They analyze and define your problems.  They help YOU find solutions. They keep checking with you to see how the solutions are functioning.

The period of counseling may take as little as a week. Or a year. What ever length of time needed.  All information learned about your business is CONFIDENTIAL. It is not revealed to anyone outside of SCORE

Experience You Can't Buy - But It's Free!
Even if you were willing to pay for management consulting, It would be difficult to find the specialized experience to match your particular problems.  But SCORE exists only to provide free information and advice on practically every business. 

• From ladies ready-to-wear retailing to food services and restaurants
• From construction to electronics and computer technology,
• From advertising and marketing to financial control,
• From purchasing to...  name it and there's a SCORE Counselor who Talks your language

It is important to organize and manage all the special skills of a business in a way that will make the business operate successfully And SCORE counselors have that management ability!
