"Joyous entrepreneur"

- Howard, Howard E. Consulting LLC

My name is Howard Edelbaum. I was born in Brooklyn and grew up in the West Brighton Projects in Staten Island. I have always been a people person and thought I can use my creativity and networking skills to help other entrepreneurs. My business, Howard E. Consulting, is a resource for small businesses and startups in the areas of operational improvement, business development, financial management, and marketing to grow their business. We help small businesses and start-ups to develop their growth plans, with a focus on accounting solutions for revenue growth using our 4D process. We diagnose where you are at, design a program to move forward to the next level, deliver and implement a new program, and help you develop from there by creating new possibilities.

The Kiva loan will be used to develop social media and marketing plans. I need to upgrade my website, do SEO and SEM, and produce marketing materials.

Kiva is a supportive community. I have found the support staff to be absolutely amazing. In the business world, customer relationships are everything. Isabela actually got back to me with questions I had before submitting my application. She returned my calls and texts promptly.

Kiva rocks! You are extremely responsive and supportive of small businesses - thank you.
