SCORE is the nation’s largest network of volunteer, expert business mentors, with more than 7,000 volunteers serving all 50 U.S. states and territories. Since its founding in 1964 as a resource partner for the U.S. Small Business Administration, SCORE has helped more than 20 million entrepreneurs start, grow or successfully exit a business through mentoring, resources and education. SCORE provides a wide range of services to established and budding business owners alike, including: Mentoring: Entrepreneurs can access free, confidential business mentoring in person at local chapters and partner locations or remotely via email, phone and video. SCORE mentors are experts in entrepreneurship and related fields who meet with their small business clients on an ongoing basis to provide continued advice and support. Webinars and Courses on Demand: SCORE regularly offers free online workshops on topics ranging from startup strategies to marketing and finance. Attendees can watch webinars live, or view recordings online on their own time. We also offer interactive courses on-demand, so you can walk through each module at your own pace. Library of online resources: Business owners can also benefit from SCORE’s extensive collection of guides, templates, checklists, blogs, videos, infographics, and more. We strive to provide the most relevant and current educational content to help small business owners and entrepreneurs succeed.

We help people succeed in business. Find our latest posts here: http://instagram.com/paloaltosoftware Our products are right for small business because we understand small business. We know what it's like to start from zero, with no outside investment, and build a company from 1 employee to nearly 50. We understand the challenges, and we also know what it takes to be successful. We are committed to providing that knowledge, experience, and expertise to as many other small businesses as possible. We believe in: Affordable Software: Small businesses should have access to quality tools at affordable prices. Simplicity: Our software tools were built by small business owners for small business owners, and are very easy to use. Quality Service: We take pride in our excellent customer service. No phone trees or endless searching to find a phone number. Small Businesses: We recognize that job creation comes from small businesses. Every business that we help to start and grow means a better future for everyone. Entrepreneurship: Anyone can start a business, and we're here to help both first-time entrepreneurs and experienced business owners succeed. Giving Back: All entrepreneurs should have the opportunity and tools to start their own business. We support this by sponsoring business plan and entrepreneurship competitions, donating free software to SCORE and SBDC offices around the country, and by giving students and educators the tools they need to learn about business.
