Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Success Story: Mobile-Tek
The following success story comes from Gil Cardon, a business advisor with Valley Community Small Business Development Center - SBDC's Hanford office.
One of Shawn’s biggest challenges in starting his business was getting his name out there and reaching new customers. Since joining the SBDC and working with his business advisor, Gil, he has made significant progress. Gil’s business advice has been invaluable and Shawn had his best month last month increasing his sales. He hopes to continue building on what he’s learned and achieve even greater success. Mobile-Tek is a business that provides service and supplies for multiple printer brands, as well as selling new printers and refurbished printers. They also sell other productivity devices like laptops, headsets and more.
