Austin SCORE provides free and confidential business advice and counseling tailored to meet the needs of individual small business owners and their personal objectives. It also offers workshops, for a modest fee, for both start-up and in-business entrepreneurs. SCORE volunteers are real-world professionals with time-tested knowledge who donate thousands of hours to help small businesses succeed. Austin SCORE counselors are experts in such areas as accounting, finance, marketing, management and business plan preparation. They have assisted many clients in obtaining business loans.


All Austin SCORE counselors are volunteers. Business experience and/or business related expertise is required to be a member. About forty volunteers currently share the knowledge they have gained during their business careers. A wide range of industries and disciplines are represented. SCORE Austin provided more than 2000 counseling services last year, and Austin SCORE volunteers’ total donated time exceeds 5,000 hours annually.
