A customized program for growing a business that works.

Running a small business isn’t always smooth sailing—unexpected challenges pop up all the time. But when business owners know where to look for help, handling these bumps in the road gets a whole lot easier.

The Nussbaum Center is here to help you figure things out—whether it’s business strategy, day-to-day stuff, finding funding, or marketing your idea. We collaborate with other organizations to make sure you get the support that fits you best, so you’re never going it alone.

We keep things simple and personal—real one-on-one help that’s way more useful than just scrolling through apps or searching online.

Shout Outs

  • Client Image

    Clay, Lisa and Sam are more like support staff than landlords. They give small businesses the opportunity to survive and grow.

    • Charles Guest, American Building Services, Associate Business
  • Client Image

    Having an office at the Nussbaum Center allows me to focus on my family when I'm at home because I'm not worried about getting work done at night.

    • Abby Donnelly, Leadership and Legacy Group, Graduate
  • Client Image

    The Nussbaum Center took me from where I was, a person with an idea, to where I am, a business owner who has survived (and perhaps even prevailed) in a volatile education market.

    • Katherine Lambert, Greensboro Online Tutoring, Associate Business
  • Client Image

    I tended not to focus on my own needs. I have marveled at Sam Funchess' ability to counsel me out of this short-sightedness. I have been both challenged and nurtured in our regular coaching sessions to make my business goals for me, not give away that essential priority.

    • Jack Hileman, TherapyWorks, Associate Business
  • Client Image

    Sam (Funchess) developed a Mastermind group of business owners/managers facing similar problems. We keep each other focused on the right things, share struggles, successes, tips, and help each other out.
