Taking the first step toward becoming a sound business can be one of the most mentally hindering obstacles for an entrepreneur. Before coming to the SBDC, we had a good business model but we didn’t have a solid business plan. We came across the SBDC online and jumped on the opportunity to receive free business mentoring. We had a dedicated representative who worked within our schedules to make each meeting convenient for us, even if it meant meeting on a Saturday morning. She answered all of our questions and helped us create a workable business plan unique to our budget and goals.
In May of 2017 we made some big changes – invested $10,000 into the business and fired two full time employees. Today, Conejo Bros. Media is a registered LLC, and we’re equipped to shoot almost any type of video, our client list is growing, and we’ve launched the Yuba-Sutter NOW Online Public Broadcast Network. We’ve begun shooting commercials and released several episodes of our thought-provoking web series THE QUESTIONS. We also have more web series in pre-production – including a restaurant show that will highlight California cuisine – and are even scripting a feature-length film, set in our own community of Yuba-Sutter.
