INVENTING VELCRO: Supporting Small Businesses and Entrepreneurs

For six years I ran a small guiding business in Custer County. My partner, Kevin Madler, and I used ingenuity in marketing and growing that business, until it inadvertently became a non-profit in 2006. So many folks in Colorado work in or own small businesses from the clerk in the 7-11 to bank tellers, to our favorite "Mom and Pop" restaurants (like Deb's Diner in Dove Creek) and stores all over the state.

  • As a small business owner, how have you been creative in growing your business?
  • If you work in a small business, tell a story about how you used your own initiative to make something happen.
  • What's the single biggest obstacle to small businesses in your area?
