Thinking about starting a business?

If you want to start your own business, you probably have some homework to do before you get started.  Find out what you need to do with a short workshop on Tuesday, May 18th from 11:30 to 1:00 p.m.  This class is perfect for you if you want to start a business, but are not sure where to start.  It includes the basic elements you need to know, what goes into a business plan, and also includes a brief self-assessment to evaluate your readiness for starting a business.
