So, you want to be an entrepreneur? Well, let’s get started!

This 4-part entrepreneurship series will give informative basics to help anyone who has dreamt of starting a business. Join us for the series, which will run once a month from September through December, and is divided into 1) Essential Steps for Starting a Business, 2) Marketing Your Business, 3) Introduction to Digital Marketing and finally, 4) Funding Options and Financials for Start-Ups.

The first workshop in the series will help you answer these questions: Do you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur? Will your idea work? How do you get started? We will work through the characteristics it takes to be an entrepreneur, business structures, financials and registering your business, and how to write a business plan, which is essential in getting a business off the ground and growing.
