New Year!
Woo Hoo!!
Ok, what are the plans you have for yourself for today or this week, month, quarter or the entire year?
I enjoy the new, different and challenging ambitions of people I work with.
You may know that my start-up clients have won virtually every award for business growth in Houston, some nationally and some even internationally!
And some of my past clients are household names in Houston.
For true!
Give me a call and let's get started.
No procrastination, please.
We can get you to where you want to go!

You may have heard that more money is available for PPP loans, EIDL grants, and special grants for live venue operators. This is true, but it will take a little time - at least 10 days or longer - until the programs start running. There will also be important changes to the PPP program, traditional SBA lending programs (7a, 504 and micro loans), and more.
Stay tuned to the Houston SBA office. As soon as guidance is completed and in our hands we will hold informational webinars to assist you in understanding if this funding is right for your business and how to access it.
Be sure to check with all the groups, organizations and programs the SBA has.

When I was a child I thought “Nap Time” was a punishment. Now, as a grown up, it feels like a small vacation.
The biggest lie I tell myself is,”I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it."
I don’t have gray hair; I have "wisdom highlights"! I’m just very wise.
If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would’ve put them on my knees.
Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven’t met yet.

"Recognized as an industry leader and pioneer in small business incubation" by the National Business Incubation Association and as "One of Houston's core entrepreneurial groups" by the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation and Ranked "the #1 new business development group in Houston" by Houston Proud!
We are a not-for-profit cooperative association of independent
business owners for market expansion, business development,
entrepreneurial education and professional growth.
We were created from an independent research project of the Houston Chamber of Commerce in the late 1970's on the importance of start-up and emerging small businesses. We brought you Houston's first small business incubator, which became Texas' oldest, the first co-working space in Texas, the first Womens Business Center in the United States and the first Residency Incubator and first Virtual Accelerator Program in the World. Our clients have ranged from pre-start-ups to the largest companies in the United States! We clearly demonstrated that entrepreneurship could be taught and that business plans were not a requirement for a successful business. Our start-ups have won virtually every award in Houston for business growth, some nationally, some even internationally and some of our established client companies are household names in Houston. We operate entirely without grants, gifts, donations or public funding. We don't have our hand out and are NOT your tax dollars at work! We are totally self-sufficient!
We grow companies, build careers and advance ideas!
May we assist with yours?
