“A lot of times we start our businesses out of having a passion for something, but then the business side can be really tricky. Finding the people who are experts in those areas can really help you be successful. The Vilas County EDC has been really helpful in connecting me with other resources and people who have helped me with tax questions, and accounting, and finding funding for my business.”
