First, attend this workshop to see if you have what it
takes
Are you thinking about starting a business? SCORE is offering
a two part workshop on Saturdays April 14 and 28. The workshop is from
9:00 to 12:00 and is held at Roane State Community College Campus Room
107 in Knoxville. The RSCC Campus is located at 132 Hayfield Road off
of Kingston Pike. This workshop has limited seating so all must pre-register
before attendance.
??? Should I Go Into Business for Myself
???
How many times have you asked yourself that question or had numerous
people tell you that you should go into business?
The answer is different for everyone based on their needs and expectations
as well as many other factors personal to them.
We invite you to attend a workshop designed to help you make up your
own mind using information known only to you. This workshop is purposely
designed for couples. (Spouses, significant other or anyone significantly
impacted by the effort of starting a new business.) Starting a business
impacts the whole family and a mutual understanding of what kind and how
much effort is required for future success.
This two part Workshop is held on two Saturday mornings each month.
The series costs a total of $40.00 per registrant payable upon registration.
One guest of the registrant is free. At the second session, you will be
provided free a USB Flash Drive containing a SCORE workbook, "How
to Start or Grow Your Business in Tennessee", and financial spreadsheet
templates for use in your new business. This workbook is valued and sold
on the Internet at $ 35.95 plus tax.
A detailed questionnaire is required to be completed one week prior
to attendance in order that the instructors can better prepare to help
your understanding of new business challenges. The questionnaire will
be provided to you after registration.
SCORE instructors will lead your participation through specific issues
that need be considered prior to any personal commitment of significant
time, energy or financial investment.
When the two part workshop is completed you will know whether your business
idea is feasible or not for you as well as have you fully prepared for
your first one-on-one meeting with a SCORE Counselor who will personally
suggest the next steps to turn your dream into reality.
