SCORE’s four-part business planning workshop program will again be held at Flagler College this fall, the fifth time the program has been offered by the organization in conjunction with the College.

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.
