The office space worked out perfectly for my situation. Fully furnished with phone, internet, and utilities included made it a very professional and economical choice. The OzSbi staff were extremely helpful with everything. I would strongly recommend anyone needing an office to utilize the services OzSBI provides.
I want to thank OzSBI mentors and staff for your time, support and guidance. The business classes that we took and your kindness has had such a positive impact on our business.
I look forward to seeing how I will grow as a leader from taking the MTI course and I know the results will show at the office. I learned several things about myself over the course I truly appreciate everything you and OzSBI does for not only us but the community.
I really enjoyed the Lunch & Learn with Brian Clark, Ray Ray's BBQ
The resources and help you offer are extraordinary.
I have found it very valuable to attend the workshops at the OzSBI. Many of the trainings are even free. What a wonderful resource for our community.
I am an affiliate client at OzSBI with my Wages Brewing Company. I started using OzSBI in 2011 via the class: Operation Jumpstart which was designed to assess the business ideas of potential entrepreneurs. During that class, we wrote a feasibility plan (like a "business plan lite"). It was immensely helpful. Soon thereafter I joined as a client. I find the mentoring, round table discussions, micro-loan program, and networking opportunities to be important to the development and growth of my business, especially during the months and years from inception to implementation. After we opened our doors in August 2016, I've continued to find great value in the mentoring program. When we get stressed or don't understand something about business, we can go to our mentors and they help us navigate what to do next. It's an incredibly helpful resource. If you are thinking of being a client and have questions, feel free to PM me. I will be happy to tell you more. Cheers!
OzSBI mentors helped tremendously in brainstorming new ideas, finding different approaches to issues at hand, helping pull together financial outlines and business plans and working on different ways to contact and get in touch with people in the community who were able to help.
We had mentors before we opened, but we have no plans to stop meeting with them. They are by far my favorite resource at OzSBI
The Services and Support at OzSBI are outstanding. They go above and beyond to guide you down your entrepreneurial path. The Caliber of the Mentors and Advisers is truly impressive. If you are considering starting or expanding a business, don't go it alone when these terrific resources are available to you.
If you are wanting to follow your dream of starting and owning your own small business, then OzSBI is the place to start. Mentoring, micro loan program, office space, support-they have it all. I would recommend this organization to anyone!
Let me say a big "THANK YOU" for hosting the MTI Coaching and Conflict training. It is by far, the very best training I have ever been through. I literally left a different person than what I entered. That was my first experience with OzSBI. We are so fortunate to have you in our area.
