Jerry Adams, PHD, with a Co-Sponsorship Agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) and assistance from the SBA’s Small Business Development Centers. The First Step Serfies is updated regulary to keep it current and accurate. Each piece in the series was written to conform to SBA specifications and designed to make the loan process easy to understand.
