Is Starting a Business Right for You?
Do you dream of starting a business? Do you know what it takes to turn that dream into a reality? It takes courage but it also requires knowledge. Let us help you acquire the knowledge to make your dreams of business ownership come true.
Treasure Coast SCORE'S 'Simple Steps' for Starting a Business program helps you prepare a blueprint for achieving your dreams for business ownership.
Simple Steps Start is a series of four modules that will give you the necessary tools to start a business. The program is designed to give busy, aspiring entrepreneurs the skills to create and validate a business idea and to create a business plan to implement that idea.
Even if you did not attend the Introductory Session # 1 held a few weeks ago, you can still register for this informative and valuable workshop.
This workshop covers the following topics:
Workshop 2: Business Concepts:
- Getting your business idea - Steps to develop - Fine tune your business concept
- Doing market research - Steps to identify your target audience & learn how they buy
- Knowing your customer
- Doing competitive research - How to know what your competitors are up to
