Small Business Classes - 2 Day Big Impact Course - San Francisco May 28, 2011

SMALL BUSINESS HAPPENS - 2 Day Intensive Program - San Francisco - May 28-29

LIMITED seating. Best price before April 25.

This is NOT your standard introductory small business class. This 2 Day small business class is for small business people and entrepreneurs who want to learn the Mindset, Actions and Ideas that will increase their success.

THIS PROGRAM IS FOR YOU IF:

** You have learned some basics about small business but are now as overwhelmed as ever. You could take more classes on marketing or spend more time researching online, but what you really need is a way to pull it all together and help you sort through it all (and ideally NOW, not over several months)

** You are already in business and are having more difficulty than you expected getting results and managing your business. Your business is starting to feel like work and you don't know how to get out of the pattern.

** You have achieved good success but know that you can do better - a LOT better - you could really benefit from improvements in how you approach your business.

DETAILS:

SESSION 1: Planning
Get off the ground on the right project and stay focused! Practical and thought-provoking. Topics: Goal definition. Understanding key success factors. Transitioning to your own business. Cashflow. Understanding the numbers of your business (for non-accountants). Assumptions and risk planning.

SESSION 2: Product and Marketing 2.0
Probably the most exciting to most small businesses. We show you how to really set yourself apart by doing this well. Topics: Creating a compelling customer experience. Market testing done fast, cheap and effectively. Getting your first paying customer.
Marketing in the social media age.

SESSION 3: Understanding Yourself - Revisited
Not some psychobabble. Fun and insightful! Business demands aspects of you that you may not well understand, so it’s worthwhile to invest in this even if you think you know yourself. Topics: Understanding your true skills. Your personality and how it affects your business. Authenticity.

SESSION 4: Managing the Business
Do this well and focus on the things that matter! We show you how not to get bogged down running your business. Topics: Getting things done. Effective decision-making. Hiring and working with staff - employees, contractors. Bringing on Business Partners.
Managing Money. Creating systems and structure to simplify management.

SESSION 5: Your Life
Work, play, family life all become intertwined for small business owners and entrepreneurs. Learn how to make this work for you. Topics include: Life goals. Friends and family. Balance. Success. Eternal happiness. (okay, maybe not enough time for the last one!)

OTHER:
We focus specifically on what makes a difference to your success. And we teach you "how" to think and act instead of just "what" to do. This will change the way you think about your business.

Prepare for success and make a 2 day investment in your business and your future. We look forward to meeting you May 28-29 in San Francisco. This program is hosted by SmallBizHappens.
