What this workshop is

This is a hands-on entrepreneurship session designed to help you launch a new business or scale an existing one. You will leave with a written plan you can build from—not just ideas.

Goal: Participants leave with a written Business Plan (start-up) or Expansion Plan (existing business) that’s clear enough to share with strategic and/or financial partners.

Format: Guided exercises + templates + peer feedback + next-step commitments.

What you’ll walk away with

• A “Plan on Paper” business plan or expansion plan
• Your next 3 action steps (with dates)
• A simple 90-day execution focus (what you’ll do weekly)
• Connection to trusted business resources

Who should attend

• Aspiring entrepreneurs and side-hustlers ready to get serious
• Small business owners looking to grow revenue, customers, or operations
• Anyone who needs structure, clarity, and accountability

What to bring

• Your business idea (or current business info)
• A notebook or laptop
• Optional: any existing plan, notes, or numbers (even rough)

Follow-up accountability (3 months)

We’re building “stickiness” into this workshop. After Feb 21, you’ll be invited to three monthly group check-ins (virtual) to:

• share progress,
• get unstuck, and
• connect to resources and support.

(Dates and RSVP links will be emailed to registrants.)

Important note (training-focused)

This is a training and educational workshop—not a sales or prospecting event. No pitches from the stage and no lead collection during the session. We’re here to learn, plan, and take action.
