presents a workshop on doing a startup

Starting your own business is an exhilarating yet overwhelming experience.

Short and to the point, the workshop offers practical, powerful information for anyone thinking about starting a business.  

Perhaps you still have a day job and are contemplating launching your own company—or perhaps you have lots of ideas and are wondering which one is most likely to succeed. The workshop’s simple but thorough seven-step method will answer your most essential questions—questions your investors will soon be asking you! Save yourself thousands of dollars and two years of your life by taking this workshop before you plunge into the startup process.
