High school freshman breaks phone, launches repair business with SBDC assistance
Cracked screens are a common sight for many; the phones are too expensive to replace and difficult to repair. Jonathan Strange saw a business opportunity, and launched XiRepair. "The Alabama SBDC program helped take our business to another level. As a first-time business owner, I had to figure everything out on my own before receiving professional guidance from the SBDC. They provided me with 1-on-1 advice to help me adopt necessary financial strategies & management tools to restructure my business for better efficiency. Their practical business knowledge has been priceless as my company has scaled." Over the past 2 years they have grown from one employee operating from home, to 10 team members in 2 retail locations in Montgomery, AL.
