Small business consultant to visit Decorah

A consultant who assists small businesses on a variety of topics is scheduled to visit Decorah March 11 to offer one-on-one, free and confidential counseling services.

Jacque Hahn, representing the University of Northern Iowa-Regional Business Center in Waterloo, will provide advice for those thinking of starting a business on topics such as marketing ideas, feasibility testing and funding sources.

Existing business owners may receive assistance on topics such as cash-flow problems, expansion challenges or marketing issues.

Hahn's visit to Decorah is sponsored by the Northeast Iowa Business Network (NIBN), which consists of economic development staffers from Allamakee, Winneshiek, Howard, Fayette, Clayton and Delaware counties.

Participants from throughout the county interested in the free, one-hour counseling session should contact Winneshiek County Development Director Randy Uhl at 563-382-6061, or wcdi@alpinecom.net to make an appointment.
