Case Study: S&R Sharpening launches a mobile sharpening business with SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty

S&R Sharpening - Customer Case Study

S&R Sharpening, founded by Scott and Ruth Clark in Largo, Florida, needed guidance to turn their idea for a mobile sharpening service into a real business. With help from SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty, the couple, who had never started a business before, sought support for launching and building their company from the ground up.

SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty provided workshops, mentoring, market research, business-plan development, and financial tracking guidance. As a result, Scott and Ruth Clark successfully opened S&R Sharpening in 2012, created a website and marketing plan, and launched a fully self-contained mobile workshop serving individual and business customers near Largo, Florida.
