For rapidly growing Glass Services of Council Bluffs, IA, scaling from 5 to 30 employees in one year presented a unique set of challenges. Sean Nightser, a Ponca tribe member, and his wife Leigh, turned to the team at Native360 Loan Fund for help with business coaching, industry-specific consultants, commercial loans and other financial services.
“The business coaching helped quite a bit, “Sean Nightser said. “It really was much more than I expected. They just wanted to help, and it was just a good feeling because I didn’t know what to expect.”
