On this week’s SBAM Weekly Podcast, Michael Rogers talks with Monica Mitidieri, the owner of Monica’s Gourmet Cookies and a member of the Michigan 50 Companies to Watch for 2020. She started as a small caterer but now has her cookies in stores across the state. “I think it was just literally calling and finding out who it is that you need to talk to, not just oh, here's some cookies, tell me what you think later,” she says. “You really need to speak to somebody that's the decision maker.”
The Small Business Association of Michigan is the only statewide and state-based association that focuses solely on serving the needs of Michigan’s small business community. We have been successfully serving small businesses like yours in all 83 counties of Michigan since 1969. We’re located in Lansing, just one block from the Capitol.
Our mission is to help Michigan small businesses succeed by promoting entrepreneurship, leveraging buying power and engaging in political advocacy. When small businesses band together through the Small Business Association of Michigan, they achieve more than they could on their own.
Our 28,000+ members are as diverse as Michigan's economy. From accountants to appliance stores, manufacturers to medical, and restaurants to retailers, what unites the SBAM membership is the spirit of entrepreneurship…a spirit that drove you to start and continue to operate your own business because you believe you can do something better than anyone else is doing it!
