Essentials For Starting A Small Business

This is our flagship workshop.

   Our aim is to help would be entrepreneurs to effectively evaluate the pros and cons of starting a small business and create a “road map” to small business success. This workshop discusses a wide range of subjects; financial considerations, planning, forms of business organization, financing alternatives, marketing, insurance, record keeping, and taxes. The workshop is ideal for people with ideas but still trying to figure out all the other things they need to consider about starting a business.

   We use a combination of SCORE counselors and professionals from the Austin Business Community as instructors. Our workshops provide an opportunity for people to meet others trying to start a business.
