Making An Appointment
Making an appointment with a business advisor can be done in 3 easy steps.
Step 2 - Review and Choose a Service Location
We serve entrepreneurs in New York City with a focus on Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan.

Grand Army Plaza, Brooklyn (Brooklyn Public Library's Business & Career Center)
-
Midtown Manhattan (New York Public Library's Thomas Yoseloff Business Center)
-
Flatbush, Brooklyn (Assemblymember Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn's Office)
-
Industry City - Sunset Park, Brooklyn (Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce office)
-
Red Hook, Brooklyn (Red Hook Business Alliance office)
-
Park Slope, Brooklyn (The Yard, 157 13th Street in partnership with the Park Slope 5th Avenue BID)
-
Williamsburg (Grand Street Business Improvement District office)

Step 1 - Check If You Already Have an SBDC Advisor
To​ maintain continuity of service, we ask that each individual meets only with one Small Business Development Center. If you’ve met with another SBDC before, please reach out to them for an appointment.
Step 3 - Make an NYSBDC eCenter Direct Account
It only takes a few minutes to sign up for no-cost business counseling. After providing an email and creating a password, you'll be asked to answer some questions about you and your business. On the last screen in the "Area of Assistance" section, please be sure to indicate your preferred service location (or if you'd like a virtual meeting) and tell us what topic you'd like to discuss with an advisor. ​
