SCORE Workshop: How to Start & Manage Your Own Business

Are you interested in starting a business but concerned about how to begin, where to begin, and whether your idea makes sense? Here’s your chance to get some answers.

After this workshop you will know…..

* how a business plan can help you
* your options for a legal structure of the business
* the importance of creating a budget
* the good news and the bad news about getting financing for your business
* how to define your product or service benefits and your target customer
* where to look for help and guidance

Don’t fall into the trap of “Build it and they will come” (because they won’t).
