Much to learn

Much to learn

Labor Day has come and gone, the unofficial end of summer. Now that the kids are back at school, what is on YOUR list of things to learn this year? Local organizations such as?SCORE?the?Community Business Partnership,?the Small Business Development Centers,?and the?Women’s Business Center?offer a?plethora?of outstanding free and low-cost workshops to help you start, improve or grow your business, and for now, most of their classes are being offered online. In addition, most of these organizations offer free 1-on-1 business counseling/mentorship services via teleconference to those who want to launch or grow their business in the next 6-12 months.

If you have been thinking about starting a new business or if you have an existing business that has reached a plateau, be sure to check out their offerings and register for a counseling session. Also, spread the word…many people do not know about these fantastic government-funded services!

To your success –

Heather
