Overview of What It Means to be In Business

Do you feel there are a lot of things you don't know about starting or owning a small business but you don't know where to turn?  Who can give you assurance that you are covering all the bases?

This is a comprehensive one day Workshop for both potential business owners and current business owners who want to gain a better understanding of what they need to know to succeed in their business. This Workshop provides an overview of all of the important aspects required to insure control and success in business to include Planning, Cash Flow, Taxes, Legal, Funding,

Insurance and Sales/Marketing. Attendees will hear from a variety of SCORE and outside professionals on these aspects and will walk away with a much better understanding of How to Manage a Small Business.

SCORE also offers free counseling with two SCORE counselors for clients that wish to gain even a better understanding and answers for questions they have with their Start-up or Existing Business. Such counseling can be scheduled through the SCORE office or web site or you can request  an appointment at this workshop.

 Continental breakfast will be provided.
