West Coast of Florida Client: Maria Smith
María Smith co-founded America Industrial Guide, LLC in Tampa, Florida, in 2020, leveraging over 15 years of experience from Colombia. Inspired by her father’s health issues caused by toxic cleaners at a Colombian oil company and his subsequent passing, María dedicated herself to creating a business focused on producing safe, environmentally friendly industrial cleaning products.
Facing the challenges of understanding U.S. business regulations, María sought assistance from Prospera after being referred by contacts in Hillsborough County in November 2023. Since then, Prospera has significantly helped her advance her business through personalized business consulting and providing her with technical assistance awards for legal and accounting assessments, QuickBooks® training, and the development of a comprehensive branding kit to enhance America Industrial Guide’s market presence.
Today, America Industrial Guide, LLC is fully operational, conducting its first sales and beginning to create job opportunities in the West Coast of Florida. With Prospera’s support, Maria continues to strengthen her business by improving its financial planning and employee recruitment processes. Looking ahead, she remains committed to reducing health risks and promoting positive environmental changes through her products.
