Treavor Leahy, Small Business Ombudsman
Do you have the personal cell phone number of someone in the state government that is determined to help business? If you were at the Business and Leaders Luncheon last week, you have at least one.
Treavor Leahy, Secretary of State Small Business Ombudsman, gave a very informative and encouraging presentation at the luncheon and his cell phone number.

Line of credit vs. loan: which is best for you? 
It can be harder to qualify for a line of credit if your credit isn’t established or strong. A benefit of loans can be that the borrowing amount is limited, so you can avoid over-borrowing. Plus, because you get it all upfront, you pay the money back with fixed monthly payments that fit your budget.

Why seaweed matters and how coastal researchers are helping us protect it.
A remote outpost on the South Coast, Port Orford’s rocky outcroppings once provided plentiful habitat for this crucial seaweed species — which is disappearing along the Pacific Coast from California to British Columbia — so it’s no surprise that this working port town is a conservation hub, too.
