Reviews of SCORE
"I’ve been working my SCORE mentors for a few months now. They have helped me increase my confidence around sales, pricing, marketing and more! As a Coach who works with global clients to shift the needle in work/life/creative pursuits, sometimes it’s hard to truly convey the value of my services to prospective clients. One of my SCORE mentors, Jim Axelrod has been teaching me how to ask concrete questions during exploratory calls - in order to understand what the client wants before pitching my services. This training and his tools have been transformative for me. I now feel more comfortable listening and delving for more, before even sharing how I can serve each unique client. Jim has given me specific questions to ask and a framework to follow during these calls. As a result I feel more confident, able to serve and close! He also helps me to focus on the long game (making connections, building trust, honing my expertise) while navigating the ups and downs of running a solopreneur venture. I am truly grateful for Jim and all of my SCORE mentors. If you are a small business owner, I highly recommend contacting them about this FREE service. We are never too old or experienced to learn from those who have gone before. This knowledge-exchange has to leveled up the profile of my business and given me many new tools to sustain my coaching practice."
"I want to start by saying thanks to everyone that makes this Organization possible! Thanks to the SCORE teams for giving me mentors such as Brian and Alan. Brian and Alan are the most intelligent, knowledgeable, resourceful, and humble people I have ever met. I joined SCORE at the beginning of 2021, not knowing much about e-commerce marketing; however, I wanted to learn. Brian and Alan make the concept so easy to understand, and They make me know all the necessary steps I need to take. I could go on, but I will stop here. Lastly, I want to thank SCORE for helping me meet such amazing mentors like Brian and Alan. You guys significantly impact my Press and success, and future success words cannot explain."
"Having an incredible experience working with Brian & Jim to build knowledge and understanding in business development and sales! - Truly glad to have the opportunity to get wisdom and insight from these two on this journey to bring ideas to life that have a great impact on the people, organizations, and communities. As an entrepreneur having SCORE mentors has definitely been a game changer for me."
"I have had an extremely valuable experience working with SCORE. After emailing their website requesting mentorship for starting my own health consulting private practice, I received an email within 30 minutes from one of my mentors inviting me to meet with him and one other mentor the following week. After our very first of several meetings I felt more motivated, ready to create a business plan, and convinced with their advice to move forward on a few business directions I had been previously dragging my feet on. Two months later I have developed a website, applied to be a provider for several health insurers, and have teamed up with additional SCORE members to learn more about marketing pitches. I have found SCORE webinars very valuable, the presenters are experts in their field and have great presentation styles. SCORE presents a treasure trove of quality information, delivered by caring and expert volunteers. Many thanks to Alan and Paul and SCORE."
"SCORE is the best! Have been working with them since I first considering opening my own business. They have been an invaluable resource at every step of my entrepreneurial experience and I have recommended several friends to seek you out on their own journey. Best thing I ever did for my new business (now 6yrs old!) was to start it with SCORE!"
