TVCC ready to serve small business owners
19 Nov 2019
Trinity Valley Community College’s Small Business Development Center is open for business, offering free research and consulting services to help business owners. Miranda Perry of Athens, a former teacher and business owner, offers consulting services each Wednesday at Palestine’s Economic Development Center.
The service is not new in town, nor unique to the region. As a new SBDC consultant, however, Perry wants more people to know the service is available. The SBDC and other economic development centers like it infused more than $9 million into the region’s economy in the last fiscal year into sectors in manufacturing, services, retail, and event venues.
