From battlefield to boardroom our vets already come with the basic foundations needed to launch successful businesses. They can endure the long hours, manage the stress, live on a shoestring budget if necessary, can see opportunities to thrive when they present themselves or make new ones if they only find lemons.
I came across the following resources that are free to vets. If you want to start a business this may be stop #1. Create a solid business plan and follow the steps to launch. Research the market to find opportunities, define the problem, construct a solution that can sell, do your paperwork and let the world know.
Delta County would benefit from fostering Veteran business and start ups to enhance the value of its current veteran resources to encourage further economic growth. Maybe there are some start-up grants out there that would provide seed money. Follow that up with low interest loans to build capacity once a viable sellable product has been launched. Particular interest in export and tourism are two good places to start. Downtown Escanaba has some great buildings to consider.
