Business Building Made Easy
bizAZ is proud to present our Business Resource Guide, a combination of two of
our most popular features, the Entrepreneur’s Resource Guide and the
International Resource Guide. Both listings are packed with contacts that will
prove essential to starting, growing and improving your business.
The original brainchild of Rick Gibson of Clear Blue Ventures and Rob Moss
of Business Development Partnership, this marks the fourth edition of the
Entrepreneur’s Resource Guide, which was developed, as Gibson puts it, “to
combine all of our Rolodexes and give everyone a peek.” We first ran the ERG in
our July/August 2002 issue and received rave reviews. Since then, we’ve
improved the list, adding contacts and categories, and tweaking the format to
be more reader-friendly. Meant to serve the entrepreneurial community, the
ERG lists the specific people (not just the firm names) who we think can best
advise you on how to get going, and who are also especially good at introducing you to others that will prove helpful. If you have questions about the list, or
would like to be included in the next version, please email Rick Gibson at
[email protected].
Thinking of taking your business global? Our International Resource Guide
will be your best friend. This, our second version of the IRG, offers the best contacts and information sources for every aspect of the increasingly complex
process of doing business outside the United States. Compiled with the expert
help of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, the British Trade and Investment
Office, the Arizona Department of Commerce, Arizona Women in International
Trade and the City of Tucson, it is sure to provide exactly what you need to go
global. For requests and questions about the IRG, please contact
[email protected].
Happy business building!

Entrepreneur’s Resource Guide
We’ve done the legwork for you—from attorneys to venture
capitalists and everything in between—we offer the essential contact
toolkit for starting, growing and improving your business. But we
admit, it’s a big list to swallow whole. So, we’ve organized the guide
into four major categories: Advice, Finance, Networking and
Services. This helps you find who and what you need, fast. Isn’t that
what being an entrepreneur is all about?
KEY
ADVICE
NETWORKING
FINANCE
SERVICES
ADVICE:
Why try to go it alone if you can learn from others? Find people/companies
who’ve been there, done that and will share the knowledge with you—albeit for a fee.

Attorneys ..........................................page 8
Business Planners ..........................page 10
Consultants ....................................page 10
Incubators/Business Accelerators ....page 12
Strategic Advisors ..........................page 14
FINANCE:
You can’t have a business if you don’t have money. Find people/companies to help you locate, grow, manage and strategize the finances for your business.
Angel Networks ................................page 8
Broker/Dealer/Investment Banking ....page 10
Business Planners ..........................page 10
CPAs/Financial Planners ................page 10

Venture Capital................................page 14
Venture Debt/Leasing ....................page 14
NETWORKING:
Tried and true, networking is one of the best ways to drum up
awareness of, and support for, your business. Find the best associations and events to grease
those networking muscles.
Associations ......................................page 8
Conferences/Events ......................page 10
Universities ......................................page 14
SERVICES:
Though you may fancy yourself a jack-of-all trades, most business
owners are not also expert HR managers, accountants or salespeople. Find people/companies who can fill in the blanks for you.
