FrogDog 1 Posted February 24, 2010 Don't forget your local SCORE, I think it stands for, Senior Consultants Owners Retired Entrepreneur. Okay, I don't know what it stands for, but that sounds good. They're usually a local chapter that meets at your city hall, and they offer free advice. Perhaps Service Corps of Retired Executives? They are a US SBA organization chartered to give free counseling to potential business owners...they are Retired business executives that will look at you business plan and help you plan and execute.
