Sacramento Valley SBDC - Sacramento, California

Sacramento Valley SBDC has been a phenomenal resource for our yearly planning process. We highly recommend this organization for anyone looking to get their business on track to scale strategically. They have useful templates and expert support for up-leveling! Special shout out to our advisor Brandon B. for being impeccable.

The SBDC is such a good program that I don’t want my business competition to find out about it, and the help from Barbara Read helps to enhance our business in ways that I could never have imagined. For several years our company has steadily increased business with the intelligent contributions of Barbara Read for Marketing, Advertising and Entrepreneurship that has constantly kept our company ahead of the competition. The SBDC program is unmatched for maintaining a system of business mentorship that creates success.
The business meetings that we have been fortunate to have with Barbara Read have all been positive, professional and productive. This is true for ALL of the SBDC Advisors we have met with. Today I am referring another business to the SBDC and when I looked it up and noticed the reviews, I saw the one written by David A that stood out. David A, if you see this, I encourage you to reflect on your experience with more of an open mind and re-evaluate what you have written. The SBDC program and all of the staff involved have the best intentions for your success. Please consider writing about positive aspects of the people who are here to help you and just quietly move on if something doesn’t work out. If I could give the Sacramento SBDC more than five stars I would, and that’s especially true for the mentorship my company has received from Barbara Read.

Brandon Beverly was extremely knowledgeable and professional. Well spoken and was very attentive and patient when explaining the process for my specific situation.

Barbara Read is the absolute worst!! She kept trying to change my business name and logo (because she gets credit with the SBDC for doing so) when there is nothing wrong with our name and branding. Be careful with who you work with because some of the counselors care more about themselves instead of your business. Barbara is very unprofessional, tries to log as many hours as she can without offering any valuable insight, and is a complete waste of time. Do yourself a tremendous favor and find someone that actually runs a business and is willing to mentor you. Barbara read a few books and knows nothing about running a business.
