Asheboro/Randolph SCORE, the Service Corps of Retired Executives, is a volunteer program, sponsored by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Asheboro/Randolph Chamber of Commerce. The program brings volunteers together with small businesses that need expert advice. These executives share their management and technical expertise with present and prospective owners/managers of small businesses.

SCORE counseling is provided without a charge. Through in-depth counseling and training, our volunteers help business owners and managers identify basic business problems, determine the causes and offer suggestions, ways and means to successfully correct problems or institute changes to his or her business. SCORE counseling also can help successful firms review their distribution channels, evaluate expansion, modify products and meet other business challenges.

Any small independent business can get help from SCORE. In fact, they don't even need to have a business. Consultation and counseling before a business start-up is an important part of their service. The approach is confidential and person-to-person.
