To find out more about the SBA, surf over to their Web site at http://www.sbaonline.sba.gov/ , or call the SBA Answer Desk at (800) U-ASK-SBA to hear recorded messages. Check your phone book or ask your librarian for the phone number of your local district office. There's at least one district office in every state, and it will be able to mail you a start-up booklet and a list of lenders. Your district office can also tell you about specialized loans tailored to your industry and where to go if you need help polishing your business plan or gathering your financial statements.
