Business Directories and Resources

Resources for business owners, and Business Directories - websites to help you find businesses by topic or region. Jayde is a particularly good source for locating other businesses and services because they specialize in offering business-to-business information.

In most larger cities, the US Government's Small Business Administration has offices where you can get some excellent advice in starting a new business, or expanding your current business. They are often staffed by volunteers from the Service Corps of Retired Executives who are very willing to share their knowledge and experience. Our local SBA office routinely holds seminars and lectures on starting a new business.

Joining your local chamber of commerce is also a great way to develop business leads. These organizations are designed to help small businesses avoid the mistakes that many first-time owners make and to establish personal relationships with other business owners in their community. They often have a printed directory and a website where you can advertise your business.
