Topic: Start-up Assistance
  • Do you reside in the Shenandoah Valley area of Virginia and are thinking about starting a new business?

  • Do you have questions about how to move forward?

  • Are you considering moving your hobby into a more structured business form, perhaps an LLC?

  • Have you already started your small business and now realize you may have missed a few things?

Your Shenandoah Valley SBDC has answers, information, and resources to help! In our Start Smart Workshops, we discuss the path to good decisions and a successful start. You'll learn to take a thorough 360° approach to your business and all its components - from product development to target marketing to financial projections and bookkeeping. We also cover the regulations and considerations you need to know.

Follow-up appointments are then available with SBDC business advisors to focus on your individual business growth needs.

Thank you for your registration to Start Smart Workshop: October 21th, 10:00am-12:00pm. Please let us know if you are unable to attend or have questions via email to sbdc_mailbox@jmu.edu

The Shenandoah Valley SBDC Team of Advisors look forward to meeting you!
