Session 2:

This is session two of a Three-Part Series. Starting a small business is exciting, and most of us want to jump right into choosing a name or a legal structure — we go beyond that to create a foundation that will work for you! Join us and get ready to launch!


Understanding your customer will allow you to effectively reach them — this is where many small business owners get stuck! In this session, we will walk through a simple process of understanding exactly how to identify your customers, describe them, and start building a plan to reach them.

Your business needs to attract the right supporters, lenders, and customers. During the last half of this session, you will map specific action steps to create a stronger support system — because it does take ‘a village’.
