Each month I try to read your mind and provide information I think you want to know. I have tried to anticipate your needs. 

Recently, I had another idea:  Why not simply ask YOU what questions YOU would like answered? 

For example:  Is there something about SCORE you do not understand, such as:

• How much time will a counselor be willing to spend helping me start my new business? 
• Can I have more than one counselor? 
• What if I don’t like my counselor, how do I get a different one assigned to me? 
• What if there is a special counselor I want to have assigned to me—how can I make that request? 
• Why do counselors do this work without charging a fee? 
• Does the counselor get paid by the SCORE organization? 
• Can I give the counselor a gift to show my appreciation? 

(The answer to the last two questions, by the way, is “No.”)

Instead of writing about SCORE, perhaps you want me to give you examples of the types of problems businesses may have and provide possible solutions.  What kind of information do you want me to provide to you?  What would you like to see more of in our Newsletters?

Please communicate directly with me at: jeanjk1935@aol.com

I will answer your questions directly by email, if at all possible.  If many people ask the same question, I will write a column about the subject.  Let me hear from you.
