A SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty Case Study
Johnny Velo Bikes, led by John Robinson in Columbus, Ohio, needed guidance as he transitioned out of a banking career and prepared to launch a new bike shop. He turned to SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty for help developing a business plan and refining the early stages of the business, including market and financial planning.
SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty connected Robinson with mentor Susan Sommerfield, who reviewed his business plan, demographics, and financials and advised on needed adjustments. With that support, Johnny Velo Bikes successfully incorporated and launched in March 2018, and its first month of revenue exceeded projections, showing strong early traction.
