Note:
The above list contains a large number of links, but you should realize
that the Internet is a constantly evoloving source of information and
helpful websites. These come and go and it would be appreciated if you
would let us know about dead or changed links by emailing us of
changes, or letting us know about new sites, at
mail@questfundingservices.us
We must disclaim that sites that are listed above
are not
necessarily endorsed by Quest Funding Services. While we believe them
to be valuable information resources, Quest is not at all responsible
for the individual sites or their content It is solely up to
you
to decide whether the sites are reliable and.or of value to you.
The
idea for this page, and basic links are from David Small, of
SCORE, the Service
Core of Retired Executives which is, itself, a tremendous resource (www.score.org) for
entrepreneurs. By hooking up with a SCORE member, you get the
benefit of years of experience from persons who are more interested in
passing on their knowledge and experience than making a fortune off of
consulting fees. While SCORE does charge for some services, much of its
mentioring is totally free.
