IL Small Businesses, Did you Know....
Did you know that according to the Illinois Small Business Association, a bit over 98% of the businesses within Illinois are Small Businesses? That means statistically, you can probably name most of the larger IL businesses off the top of your head!

Check out the resources or maybe join that ever-successful mentoring program? We'll be waiting regardless.
