When Marqueta Grant retired after 22 years of military service, she knew she didn’t want to go back to a desk job. “My mother was a hairstylist and seamstress, and she worked for herself, so I know a lot about hair and clothing. When we were on deployment, all of the girls would ask me to get them the best products,” she said.
For Karen Enderlin, managing her family’s Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Fredericksburg, the SBA 504 program made all the difference in coming out of covid closures and keeping the family business strong.
Glenda Colmenero has always worked for herself. “I like to be responsible for my own success,” she said.
And after years of working in real estate in the 5,000-population town of Giddings, Texas, she was becoming frustrated with the difficulty for sending documents and receiving packages, which would often be left by the side of the road or under a tree hundreds of feet from the front door. So instead of complaining, Glenda decided to solve the problem. This June, she will be opening her own Business Depot, Giddings’ first-ever business supply and mail center.
A South Austin stalwart since 1998, everyone knows Willie Flores’ business on South 1st Street. When he needed a small loan for equipment and working capital, he approached BCL of Texas to see what we could do. A quick chat with one of our loan officers and not long after that Mr. Flores had the new tow truck he needed and was ready to grow his business.
Tara Kuntschick had leased space for her beauty salon, Hair It Is, for years. Ready to find a place of her own, she began to work with the loan officers at BCL of Texas to increase her equity injection for a real estate loan. With combined financing from BCL of Texas and her local bank, she was able to purchase a charming new location and increase her services in the community.
KTonic Kombucha emerged from the seed of an idea, germinating around the concept of transforming tea into a fermented beverage. In pursuit of a healthful and functionally balanced drink, KTonic embarked on a journey to create a version of the beverage that maintains a “tea-centric” profile with the lowest sugar content possible.
There are many different kinds of business owners out there. There’s the salesman, the organizer, the independent do-it-yourselfer, and more. But the successful ones? They build a team that can wear all the hats. Just ask Jason Herrera, owner of ClearVue Networks, LLC, an information technology (IT) firm that in just the past five months has grown from 5 to 13 employees, a number which is likely to double before the end of the year.
