  12. Benefits of the Program • This is a comprehensive approach to assisting Veteran small business startups providing education, resources, and guidance. • Too many new businesses fail for fundamental reasons: • Lack of clarity about products, demand, customers • No unique approach to markets • Too little funding • Poor Business concepts and/or Business Plans • Not everyone can attend “B” School – We’ll teach what’s needed • Going it alone from outset is frightening and dangerous – We provide seasoned mentors to guide the way.
