Taking Simple Steps To Help Small Businesses Thrive BY DAYNA M. REIDENOUER
The young couple at a dinner party that Valley Farm Supply owners J.C. and Caren Remsberg attended was frustrated with the challenges facing their small trucking company: hiring people, growing the business, and even the possibility of returning to work for someone else. The Remsbergs were empathetic, and they passed along the same advice J.C. had received from a college friend who owns a logging business. “Nothing is better than being on your own as a businessperson, and he knew that,� J.C. related. “We really talked SCORE up to him and (that) he needs to be in the next Simple Steps program.� “SCORE Lancaster-Lebanon is an active chapter of professional mentors who are here to help people who want to start or optimize their business,� explained certified mentor and education committee chair Catherine Bonser. “This is a service available to small businesses at no charge to them.� See SCORE pg 6
