Our lead time for advisor appointments is currently 3-5 business days (see exception below).
If you are in the early stages of exploring and developing a business idea and have not yet officially launched or generated revenue, you will be required to take our online "How to Start a Business" training series prior to booking an appointment with an advisor. If this applies to you, once your Request for Advising is processed, you will receive an email from our office with a link to the training series.
