Episode 10: Small Business Advocate Extraordinaire, Tara Lynn Gray.

NFIB California

If you've ever wondered where to go for help, what the process is to get support for your small business, where you might find additional funding as the state emerges from Covid compliance, then this episode is for you! Tara Lynn Gray, Director of the California Office of the Small Business Advocate has one sole purpose. To help support, educate and inform small business of all that the state of California has to offer. And it is a lot as you'll find from her discussion with NIFB's Director, Northern California, John Kabateck. And there is no need to worry about language barriers when it comes to small business either. The state offers support in 30 languages to accommodate nearly every small business. Tara is one of the most supportive, enthusiastic and engaging leaders small business can have on its' side. She truly does represent the cause, the mission and the purpose and shares her responsibilities as passionately as any small business owner would on their own behalf.
