“The Illinois SBDC at IECC was great to work with! They customized their services for my needs, which allowed me to expand in the best way for me and my customers.”
Nick Carter, Carter Insurance Company
SBDC has been awesome to work with. In today's work industry it can be very hard to find good employees. SBDC was there to help with that. I would highly recommend SBDC to all local businesses.
