Ready to start your journey toward a new business venture? If you’re convinced that entrepreneurship is the route for you, take this introductory business planning course to chart a strong foundation.

In this class, we’ll review library tools and resources that can help you as you build your business–all available with your library card! Much of this class will focus on your business plan and the sections within, from your Executive Summary, to Industry Analysis, to an Operations Plan, Financials, and more. 

Building a business plan can seem overwhelming at first, but it’s a key ingredient for success–entrepreneurs with business plans are 260% more likely to launch, and a plan increases the likelihood of growth by 30%.
