Testimonials

“Great group of people that are there to help your small business with many needs. After the process of purchasing our new property for our store they continue to be there for resources and referrals to other companies that may help you with needs. Any questions you may have in running your business they are a great place to start!”

- Pat Pain

“The pandemic posed an existential threat to Tilbury House Publishers. Stores, libraries, schools—all the places that distribute children’s books—shut down in April 2020, and the bottom dropped out of our sales. We obtained a Paycheck Protection loan but knew it wasn’t enough. Then we learned of SBA-backed Covid relief loans available through CCFC, and we applied. CCFC helped us through the process, and the $50,000 loan not only helped us pay our bills but gave us optimism to keep going. We survived, and 2021 is shaping up to be our best year ever. I’m a big believer in CCFC’s mission.”

- Jonathan Eaton Co-Publisher, Tilbury House Publishers

“We started our small business journey planning three years ago,during that process and still today, CCFC has been there every step of the way to offer us their guidance, advice, assistance, and support.”

- Tim and Bobbi Nugent, owners of Little Brick Pub in Mechanic Falls

“Our experience with Community Concepts Finance Corporation has been remarkable! When we first met, our business was growing fast, and we wanted to connect with an organization who understood business and finance. Their support has been tremendous. In the year and a half since we started working with Community Concepts, we have grown out of 2 rental spaces and are on track to buy our own space. Community Concepts Finance Corp has a terrific team of personable, knowledgeable people who genuinely want to help businesses thrive.”

- Ethan & Teresa Houle, Owners of 207 Small Engine Repair in Arundel
