On Wednesday evening at the Jennifer Leavitt Student Center, there was a free training for those looking to start a small business or those who already own their own business. The majority of those in the seminar already had established businesses, but this was a training to help them improve or gain helpful tips to move their business forward.
There was a presentation prepared for the small crowd that gathered for the meeting. The PowerPoint included helpful tips about becoming an entrepreneur, starting a business and better ways to help it grow. A main topic that was discussed during the meeting was a business model and how it will change over time as a business evolves. Money was also brought to the table and tips were given along the lines of finding ways to receive money for a business.
Another matter brought into consultation was the idea for a business and how not all ideas are liable for one to prosper in the area desired. One might find a need but then they would need to think about if it is really, truly necessary for that area. Suggestions were then given of how to conduct market research.
