The Regional Director of the Small Business and Technology Development Center says the center is underutilized. Rebecca Evans is trying to get the word out that the center in Saint Joseph is here to help entrepreneurs.

The center offers a multitude of services beginning with business plan assistance for startups and existing businesses. Evans says it also offers market research at no charge, which is rare for most small business owners. It is a pre-paid confidential consultation service that helps owners develop successful business techniques.

The Small Business and Technology Development Center is located in the Saint Joseph Metro Chamber of Commerce building, 3003 Frederick Avenue. For more information call Rebecca Evans at 816.364.4105.
