Client/Membership Overview
revised January 11, 2013

Membership in the Ozarks Small Business Incubator (OzSBI) is available in 2 basic flavors: Client and Member.

  • Clients are the businesses that OzSBI focuses its main attention on.
    • Clients may be housed in the OzSBI building as tenants, or may be affiliate Clients that are operating from some other location (often at home).
    • Clients are assigned a personal business mentor.  
    • Clients are expected to have, and update, a business plan.
    • Clients have priority access to all OzSBI Services and Resources, and free (or almost-free) access to OzSBI workshops and courses.
    • For services for which there is a charge, client discounts are deeper than those for members.

     

  • Members have access to many OzSBI Services and Resources at a discounted rate on a pay-as-you-go basis. Members may be:
    • Stable businesses that want to stay ahead of the competition.
    • Small businesses that are not ready to make a big jump.
    • Part-time or home-based businesses that are trying to slowly grow their business.
    • Larger corporate businesses who want some of their employees to attend Incubator workshops and seminars.
    • Supporters who want to support the Incubator and their clients.
