Entrepreneur turns challenge to opportunity with SBDC advising

After losing his construction business in the recession, Jorge Hernandez was barely back on his feet with his daughter as his business partner when the pandemic hit. Problems piled up until failure looked imminent. That's when daughter Joselyne contacted the SBDC. Her advisor helped her clear up an issue with L&I, create procedures to protect themselves from difficult customers and clarify their market niche. SBDC assistance gave Jorge the confidence to invite his son to quit his job and join the family business as well. “(The SBDC) gave our business the boost it needed to start off the year strong,” Joselyne said. Joselyne said her father intends for The Black Woodpecker to be a legacy for his children and an inspiration for others.

Elkview Health, LLC finds success with support of WV SBDC and Future of Nursing WV program

The collaboration of the WV SBDC and the Future of Nursing WV program provided Vicki Spurlock with the guidance she needed to launch her own business after a 15 year career as a Family Nurse Practitioner. The Nurse Entrepreneurship Program helped her navigate the cost structure, revenue model, and legal regulations unique to her industry and enabled her to network with other nurses who operate businesses. The program also connected her with the SBDC, whose guidance not only helped her work through the details, small and large, needed to start her business, but has also been instrumental in gaining access to the resources she needed to stay open during the COVID-19 pandemic and to grow her business in just two years.
