SCORE business planning workshop series offered at Flagler College
Sep 27th

The workshop series by SCORE, a non-profit dedicated to serving small businesses, is designed both for those with an existing business seeking to increase the level of their business as well as those considering starting a new business. The workshop series will address the preparation of a professional business plan and obtaining necessary financing.
The workshop’s four sessions are include: “Business Concepts and Data Collection” which reviews the process of putting together a feasibility plan to determine if a business idea makes sense, “Marketing Strategies” will review the proper positioning of a product or service to maximize its appeal in the marketplace, “Financial Forecasting” reviews building a financial model for a business and “Completing the Business Plan” covers financial statement analysis, accounting & bookkeeping systems, the “six C’s of credit,” banking relations and sources of capital both traditional and non-traditional.
All sessions will be held at Flagler College on Wednesday evenings, October 10, 17, 24 and 31 from 6 to 9 p.m. The cost to participate in all four sessions is $99 or $30 for individual sessions.
