CURATE YOUR BUSINESS BLUEPRINT
We're the only alliance in the Seattle area offering small business owners like you a curated marketplace to "shop" for solutions to your challenges and a blueprint for your individual business needs – all the tools and methodologies you need under one roof.
FACILITATE A VIBRANT BUSINESS COMMUNITY.
We are in the local area – Bothell, WA and surrounding cities. We live and work here so we understand your particular needs. We support small business community-building so you can expand your network with like-minded business owners.
Here's how we help your business thrive.
Networking:
Connect with small business owners just like you across the Lake Washington's greater north shore area, covering Snohomish county and parts of King county.
Mentoring:
Receive mentoring from sources like SCORE (Service Corps of Retired Executives) and other federal, state and local programs.
Financing:
Connect with local area bankers who are in the business of offering loan programs to help your small business.
Education:
Six local educational institutions have formed partnerships with us –including the University of Washington, Bothell – to offer classes, seminars and conferences on subjects as diverse as startup launches, small business marketing, and accounting.
Partnering:
Get advice, support from our partner programs like the SBA (Small Business Administration), other non-profit service providers and independent small business consultants.
Consulting:
Discover our hand-selected consultants with decades of experience helping businesses find solutions to their challenges in every discipline.
We facilitate the creation of your own small business community with companies that may share your challenges and have some solutions of their own, such as those who are working through budgeting and accounting difficulties.
We also match you to "clusters" – those who are in the same business as you. For instance, restaurants or e-commerce, so you can share inspiration, best practices, camaraderie and more.
We do this by holding networking events, creating lists and forums on the website and grouping by email introductions.
