Description:
If you’ve always wanted to own a business but weren’t sure how to start, this workshop is for you! During this one-day workshop, participants will work their way through creating a real-life business plan! No need to even have an idea—we will help you with that! Participants will get an intro to why entrepreneurship is important, come up with an idea and do some competitor research, target market research, marketing strategy, financial analysis and some next steps/ resources. No matter where you are in your business, having a plan is critical for success! By the completion of this workshop, participants will have a working business plan that can be taken to investors, used as a guide for business development, or taken to Young Americans Bank to apply for a business loan! This workshop satisfies the Entrepreneurship Merit Badge for the Boy Scouts of America and gets you on your way to applying to the Spotlight on YouthBiz Stars Business Competition, with a total prize package of $10,000!
