4.What problems (if any) or benefits (if any) have the small businesses with which you work mentioned with regard to accessing or using SBA programs?

5.Do the small businesses with which you work have specific needs that the SBA does not address?
6.Do you have a working relationship with a Small Business Development Center?
7.Do you have a working relationship with a SCORE chapter?
