"I want to thank you for the wonderful award the Small Business Development Center presented to Petz Plaza. I fell like I should be giving y'all the award for providing such a terrific service.  You'll be happy to know I still look at the business plan we developed together. Still the greatest think I took away from my experience witht he LSU SBDC was the constant encouragement and the optisism for our concept.  Thank you so much for everything."

"I am astounded at the response given to our project by the Baton Rouge Convention and Visitors Bureau this morning. We owe a lot to you already.  If you never helped us again, we have received more enthusiastic support and direction than we could have dreamed up. Everything you have said has worked extremely well so far.  Thank you for all your efforts to help us get this new idea up and running."

Janice DeLerno, President of Louisiana Bed & Breakfast Association writes about Tony Martinez and Brian Greenwood (LSBDC personnel):

"I just wanted to thank you for presenting the marketing seminar to our group at the Louisiana Travel Promotion's Annual Summit.  You and Brian did a great job of explaining the brass tacks of writing a marketing plan.  I enjoyed the Summit tremendously and gleaned a lot of fresh ideas to start the year off right here at my B&B....Thank you for all you do to help small businesses in our Baton Rouge community. I appreciate your knowledge and professionalism in your presentations.  I also appreciate your willingness to help when called upon."
