"Of course we all have our limits, but how can
you possibly find your boundaries unless you
explore as far and as wide as you possibly can? 
I would rather fail in an attempt at something
new and uncharted than safely succeed in a
repeat of something I have done."
-A. E. Hotchner

 The KUSBDC helps Hertzog Homestead B&B Bet the Farm, and Win

 
When Scott and Kristen Hertzog started a Bed & Breakfast out of their home in 2004, they only had two rooms dedicated to guests.  Now with the renovation dreams of their barn, the Hertzog's hopes are expanding along with their business.

Now reaching new number of guests, the Hertzogs are beginning a journey of converting their vacant barn into Bed & Breakfast suites.  Helping them reach this peak is consulting and financial guidance from the Kutztown University Small Business Development Center.
