Small Business Development Center - SBDC At Pasadena City College

As someone starting up a small business, the information and support I've received from the SBDC Centers has been incredibly valuable. Everyone at the Pasadena SBDC has been exceptionally helpful, and Xiomara in particular has been so generous with her knowledge in helping me to figure out complex issues in California employment law. The SBDC Centers are really an outstanding resource for any small business owner, I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I just wanted to take a moment to share my experience with SBDC and Xiomara- HR coach. I received her advice and was really impressed by how much she cared about my needs and paid attention to details. But it's not just Xiomara, everyone at SBDC goes above and beyond to help me and my business. All the coaches and workshops are amazing, and because of them, I have a much better and deeper understanding of my business. The level of care and attention to detail they provide is truly impressive. They make sure to listen to my needs and concerns, and offer great suggestions that have been incredibly helpful to me. Overall, I can't recommend SBDC enough. They truly care about small business owners and will do everything in their power to help us succeed.

Colin Smith is amazing! In less than 30 minutes, he told me more about SEO than I could have found out from 40 hours of webinars or my own research. I highly recommend working with him and I can't wait to work with him again.

After attending a very informative, information packed webinar on SEO, I was able to schedule a on-on-one Zoom meeting with the presenter, Colin Smith. We had a great meeting with some very concrete things learned and will be scheduling regular meetings with him. This is my first time to take advantage of the SBDC services and I am very imrpessed and excited with the quality of the presenter and am really looking forward to attending future webinars. What an amazing resource. Every small business owner should explore what they have to offer if they want to improve their bsuiness!
