Intro to Labor & Industries for Small Business

Thrive Nutrition

As the owner of Thrive Nutrition in Lacey, a special “shout-out” to Thurston Co EDC and especially Robin Houde for her very patient, hand-holding, in helping us to navigate through the (sometimes confusing) application process. With her support we were able to qualify for a grant from the City of Lacey. Thank you as well to Kaylee Purcell for her help. I want to say that each and every time I called their hotline I was treated like a VIP!

I would just like to express my gratitude to the Washington Center for Women in Business.

As a new business owner with lots of questions I feel quite blessed to have found this outstanding organization online.

One phone call later I was connected to numerous professionals, mentors, workshops and classes that have given me knowledge, insight and most importantly the confidence that I can be a SUCCESSFUL small business owner.

I would like to personally acknowledge Robin and Beth for their countless hours of support and encouragement. These “women for women” are truly the best and have poured into me personally and professionally in countless ways.

Twine & Swift LLC

I am so grateful for the assistance from WCW for helping me to learn how to use QuickBooks for my bookkeeping. Beth Brown is a patient and knowledgeable coach and with her help I am learning how to set up my accounts in QuickBooks! In two Zoom sessions we have gone over:

1. How to set up accounts

2. Record deposits and expenses

3. Reconcile accounts

4. Invoice and Record Payments

5. Use Financial Statements and Reports

Already I feel hopeful that I can do this and QuickBooks will totally simplify and improve my bookkeeping and will finally be able to move my accounting from spreadsheets into QuickBooks. My accountant is already cheering!

Thank you immensely for the support and help. I am growing food for our food bank, providing affordable housing, and my tiny business contributes to our local economy thru taxes, payroll, and purchases.

It is a real gift to have a coach teaching me to utilize QuickBooks and I truly appreciate this amazing support and assistance!
