Business Resources
First things first. Many of the companies listed here are folks we’ve personally done business with (these are starred). Others come highly recommended from a variety of sources: clients, successful CEO’s I’ve interviewed for Entrepreneur.com and other business publications I write for, workshop attendees and networking contacts that I meet all over the country. These business resources are posted here because we think they are talented and generally just nice people to work with. We heartily encourage you to check them out, send them an inquiry by email or give them a call. They’d be happy to answer all your questions!
IMPORTANT NOTE: Just like Consumer Reports, we have no hidden agenda, no “arrangement” with any of these business resources. They are here to give you a great starting point, to help you see the kind of support businesses that should be part of your team — to help your own business thrive. As you might imagine, we cannot make any specific guarantees regarding their services, and recommend that you shop around and get 2-3 written estimates anytime you are looking to hire a new vendor or independent contractor.
