The NJSBDC (New Jersey Small Business Development Centers) consulting services are provided at no cost to small businesses and entrepreneurs. This is because the NJSBDC is a non-profit organization that is partially funded by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), the state of New Jersey, and other private and public funding sources. The purpose of the NJSBDC is to foster economic growth by providing support and assistance to small businesses, helping them succeed and create jobs.
As a result of this funding, the NJSBDC is able to offer its consulting services at no cost to clients. This enables small businesses and entrepreneurs to access valuable resources, expertise, and guidance without having to worry about the financial burden of paying for consulting services. By offering no-cost consulting, the NJSBDC helps level the playing field for small businesses, giving them a better chance to succeed and grow in a competitive marketplace.
