The Alabama Small Business Development Center at Alabama State University will host a workshop from 5 to 7 p.m. Monday, Aug. 19, at the Jeanette Barrett Civic Room in Wetumpka to help small businesses develop a winning business plan.
The workshop, What’s Your Big Idea?, is for those who have an idea for a new business, have started a business and things are slow or for those who have been in business for a few years and are struggling.
“A business plan is designed to be a road map to guide the entrepreneur and is essential to a business’ success,” said Lorenza Patrick, ASU Small Business Development Center director. “A good business plan can help a business with a number of tasks, such as helping the business owner convey his vision to a potential investor, attract new businesses or suppliers, or to simply better manage their business.”
Workshop participants will learn essential tips and advice for writing a successful business plan, which includes how to start or grow a business, marketing, production of service, organization and management, research and development, finance and how to remain competitive.
