The Vermont SCORE chapter and the Vermont Small Business Administration are seeking experienced small business professionals who want to help other small businesses succeed.
SCORE mentoring is a free service offered by a network of more than 10,000 volunteers from across the country. Mentors help small business owners start, grow and achieve new levels of success by providing experience, best practices and small business advice.
The volunteers of SCORE are the primary reason for the organization’s success. Since 1964, SCORE has educated and mentored more than 11 million small business owners and entrepreneurs. Make a meaningful difference in a business owner’s life by giving time and experience.
To learn how to become a mentor, attend a webinar at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 25. The link is https://score.zoom.us/j/96559173545 and meeting code is 965 5917 3545.
