Local businesses give a community its flavor. Towns across America have similar chain restaurants, grocery and department stores but that diner down the street where you have breakfast every Saturday morning is one-of-a-kind. The combined presence of your town's many local businesses makes it different from every other city in the world. By supporting those businesses instead of chains, you ensure that uniqueness is preserved as a part of your community. The Virginia SBDC Network exists to help small businesses succeed.

Every Old Bond Store Member I mention this book to says it is game changing. We have lots of new members joining to spend more time working on their business but only a few actually have a clear plan on what they should be working on. If you want to create a business asset, rather than just an income..... BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING.....PLEASE READ THIS BOOK! If it doesn't make sense, unfortunately, as much as I hate to say it, neither will an OBS membership. #entrepeneurship #smallbusiness #oldbondstore #clubworking #obscommunity
