JAVA Services, LLC | Application Preview
JAVA Services, LLC is seeking government grants to improve its operations and expand services. The requested funding will be used primarily to purchase a new vehicle, as the owner’s current car is facing reliability issues. This will facilitate a greater range of services and ensure that office equipment can be maintained or replaced as needed.
The business aims to expand into Lawrence and Topeka, with a plan to obtain a small office space in the western part of the Kansas City metro area for better access to clients and travel between cities.
The owner has extensive experience running small businesses and started JAVA Services during the pandemic to balance work with parenting. There is confidence in the business's potential for long-term success, although financial constraints have hindered growth. The owner currently charges clients at a rate that does not allow for substantial investment back into the business.
JAVA Services distinguishes itself from competitors by focusing on small businesses and offering a comprehensive range of services beyond traditional bookkeeping. This includes support in areas such as office management and payroll, which adds value for clients.
The owner’s commitment to client success is a significant competitive advantage, as they approach work with a dedication that fosters strong relationships. This personalized service model sets JAVA Services apart, making it hard to compare with other providers.

Funding Usage
I’d like to purchase a vehicle (my car is on its second engine) to allow for a broader range of services available by me, as well as to have the funds available when any of my current office equipment needs repaired again or replaced.

Business Plan
I’d like to expand to Lawrence & Topeka. Ideally, I would find a small office space somewhere on the west end of the KC metro that would allow for easy highway access to drive between cities / gather clients who could meet me at my office more often. I’ve run small businesses for others my whole adult life, and chose to open this business during the pandemic to allow me to work from home with my son. It’s something that I believe has the potential to keep me busy for many years to come, but I’m stuck in a position of being unable to grow more organically because I don’t charge my clients enough to save for these larger purchases. But would absolutely be benefited by their gain.

Self Identified Competition
I don’t know of anyone else offering my services. I’m niche in that I gravitate towards other small businesses & offer far more than just traditional bookkeeping. Oftentimes, I help with projections, office management, payroll, business management, hiring, invoicing, reporting for banks, and more. I believe in my clients & want them to succeed. This isn’t a job for me just to pay bills. I take on their businesses and work for them as if they’re my only employers, but also give them the benefit of not having to pay many hours per week for my services (some none at all if they’re in an off season) which makes comparing me to anyone else quite difficult.
