This is a FREE workshop and space is limited.  Pre-registration is required.

Starting your own business? Being in business on your own is an American dream, but it isn't easy. While the number of small business startups has been increasing every year, most fail within the first three years. 

Our workshop offers essential information to help you succeed. We will cover the basics of assessing your business plans and ideas. If being in business on your own is your goal, but you're not sure where to begin, this workshop is for you!

 Topics include:

  • sources of funding
  • basic operation planning
  • business structure
  • evaluating feasibility
  • and marketing guidelines
