TESTIMONIALS

It has been a month since the ’07 WBCC Expo and I wanted to touch base with you to let you know of the positive outcomes that we have received from participating as an exhibitor at the event. So far we have gained three new clients signed-up for our Small Manufacturers Advantage Program and also connected with a potential additional San Diego County small business partner. I know that you have been working tirelessly to make the WBCC a great resource for small business owners and I thank you for your commitment. We value you as a small business partner and are excited to see how we can continue to work together in the future.                                                                                -- Wendy Nevak, CMTC

It was great to see you at the Expo last week. Thanks for inviting us to come. We got there just around 5:00pm and were able to wander through and get some good information. My friend Dawn that came with me is just about to open up a salon in Solana Beach and I think that she found lots of helpful information for getting that started.
