Katherine is AMAZING at what she does! Every question and problem I have she has a quick and sharp answer or solution! She truly cares and gets straight to the point and fills the 15 minutes of your conversation with substance. Thank you so much!

Im just starting a business, which is very intimidating, and Katherine is making it easy so far! I appreciate having someone to answer my (many) questions and take me through the process one step at a time. Shes great to work with and Im so glad this place exists as a resource for people like me.

Great informative and extremely knowledgeable!

I’m so thankful for this service. With a sea of information, taxes, and government websites in front of me, I was hesitant about the way forward. Katherine was prompt and helpful in our focused conversation. I now have a clear pathway forward and a resource for the future. If you are like me and looking for the best next steps, I highly recommend reaching out and scheduling a call.

I have Kathrine as a business advisor and she’s really great! She’s very attentive and listens to your questions and concerns and answers them very clearly. If she doesn’t have an answer at that moment she will email you with it later! When our conversation was over I was left feeling very confident with my business and it’s future! Thank you and I look forward to working with you!

I recommend that anyone starting a business calls this program first before they get overwhelmed.They provide so much more than I thought. They really gave me a leg up. We put together a timeline of the steps I needs to take and they provided me with all the contacts I need to get started. Im so glad I gave them a call! Katherine really went above and beyond for me and now I feel like my goals are within reach.

Reached out for counseling in writing a business plan. Katherine responded promptly to schedule a telephone call. When we spoke, she was super knowledgeable and really paid attention while I gave her the details of my concept, vision and goals. We are currently working together on finalizing my plan. I cant speak highly enough about Katherine - she really knows her stuff!

I had a wonderful experience with Miss. Zobre during our phone conversation. I am looking forward to working with her very soon. They provide everything necessary to jump start a business idea in a positive, and affective manner. Thank you for all your help.

Katherine really took the time out to discuss and provide some positive feedback about my business venture. I am looking forward to her continuous advise and expertise.

My business advisor is Katherine Zobre and she was phenomenal! She was patient and very thorough in her guidance to helping me build my business and I look forward to continuing to work with her1

Very happy I chose to connect with ASBD. They are professional and offer a wealth of knowledge. I think that I am in good hands moving forward with my small business idea. The amount of information that they provide and their suggestions on how to move forward gives me a high level of confidence that I can do this.

I am glad I made the appointment to talk with Katherine; she listened, gave great resources and helped me get on the right track. I encourage anyone with a business idea to go online and make the appointment now!

Extremely Great Service! The agents are personal, understanding, and thorough in helping entrepreneurs with their business overall plans. My agent Katherine Zobre is responsible for my testimony! I recommend SBDC to anyone looking for guidance within their business.

I own a gourmet kettle corn company hence the name ... we play off of the sweet and salty flavor and wanted a name that stood out. We’ve been in business for 4 years. I recently was contacted by Katherine at the Alabama SBDC to discuss my business and it’s current operation as well as future plans and needs to accomplish those goals. I was thrilled to see how thoroughly she was listening when I received a detailed email recappinggnour conversation. She will be working with me on a one on one base and walking me through steps to prepare my company for lending. She ran a report on the health of my website and we have a litany of things to work through. This is a free service which if huge considering as a small business you have limited capital which makes it hard to pay a professional for every area of your business. This is a terrific stepping stone an doesn’t compare to even some top seminars I’ve paid for. I’m at excited about the growth that will stem from the involvement in this program. Thank you and I highly recommend any small business to take time to discover how this program can help further your business and prepare you for the next phases of your concept.

I just started working with Katherine Zobre, and shes already given me so many insights on how to be the best cafe owner I can be. She also has helped me fill in the information gaps in my business plan. I think its great that we have a FREE service like this in Alabama! Every business owner should give the SBDC a try!

Katherine was exceptionally responsive to an urgent need I had for information to forecast the growth of my business. I look forward to working with her in more detail to grow my business.

More than I expected! Dont get to say that often. My representative Katherine Zobre listened to me, took my concerns seriously, understood the implications and helped me with plans to address them. My confidence is way up.

Ive just starting working with Katherine at the ALSBDC and I am so glad I did. She has outlined a game-plan for me to start the business and has provided valuable resources and insight on my business plan I know this will be a successful venture and I look forward to working with her on this journey.

Amazing experience! Provided me with a lot of helpful information about getting my business running

Great Service. We dont feel alone anymore standing up our business

My advisor was extremely helpful. Love it

I am so glad this service is available. I had a lot of anxiety about certain things but Katherine assured me she was there to assist me in providing necessary information regarding my business start up

I recommend ASBDC for any individual starting, developing or growing a small business. Katherine Zobre was attentive, informative and extremely helpful with providing me my next steps with my unique, non-traditional veterinary consulting firm Assistance Animals Consulting. In just one meeting Katherine assisted me with developing a strategic plan, provided reputable references for small business attorneys and CPAs to name a few. In trying to keep this review short and sweet, I cant name all the ways Katherine has assisted and supported me with developing my business. I am more than thankful for the time I had with Katherine and her expertise and guidance in my journey as an entrepreneur. I am looking forward to my 2nd meeting with Katherine!

Excellent and Informative. Highly worth it.

This business and my mentor has helped me tremendously and I couldnt have asked for a better experience.

Great help.
