Written by SmartBiz Team | May 8, 2019 4:00:00 AM

Did you know that over half of Americans either own or work for a small business? These unique firms are a hallmark of the US: they drive the economy, create new jobs, and play a central role in their local communities.

As part of National Small Business Week, May 5-11, 2019, we’re celebrating the hardworking, passionate, and driven small business owners who trust us with their financing needs and inspire us every day.

Our team in the San Francisco Bay Area and Austin are proud to work with entrepreneurs like you. Thank you!

Katie, Relationship Manager

“I love learning about how someone is able to transform their passion into a business. Most of the business we work with have owners who have poured their heart and soul into the work and many of the times, our loans are able to help keep their dreams alive, or keep their dreams growing. Small businesses are an important part of economy - we need them to be successful! Coming from a family that owned a small business and even obtained an SBA loan many years ago, I have the struggles these businesses may be going through first hand. Being able to help them really brings me joy.”

 

Suzanna, Sr. Visual Designer

“I admire the determination, resilience and courage it takes to strike out on your own, against a lot of odds, to be one’s own boss and take charge of your future.”

 

Nicole, Account Manager

“I would like to thank small business owners for all their hard work, late nights, and working holidays. They have so much passion for what they do and I love it.”

 

Jon, Account Executive

“I love getting inspired through working with people that are passionate and brave enough to start their own business.”

 

Suzanne, Sr. Marketing Content Writer

“It's so inspiring to speak with small business owners who work hard every day pursing their dreams. They are not only smart and driven, they're also playing an important role by supporting the American economy. I'm honored to work for a company who helps business owners reach their entrepreneurial goals.”
