Are you a student, carer, have a health condition or disability that prevents you from working standard hours and shifts, are a home-maker, retiree or aren’t employed and aren’t in receipt of work related benefits (eg, Job Seekers or PIP)?
Have you ever considered if self employment could be an option for you? Perhaps you have a talent for making things and you have considered the potential of selling, or you would like to explore the freedom of working for yourself?
Whether you have a business idea or not, come and join us for this 2 hour workshop where you’ll get the chance to discover what it entails to be self employed and if starting a business is right for you!.
In this workshop you will:
● Discover the practical tools entrepreneurs use to develop their ideas
● Identify and explore your skills and attributes to help your idea to grow
● Understand what your customer looks like and what problem they want you to solve
● Create your own personal roadmap for your business.
From exploring, expanding and enhancing your business idea to finding out the secrets of how you can test your idea before you go to market, entrepreneur and trainer Tina Calder will show you all the essential practical tools and techniques you can use to develop your idea into a reality.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have an idea you want to explore or you just like the sound of thinking about how you could take control of your own future. Come along and meet like-minded people in a relaxed, casual and informal setting. You’ll also get to hear about the Go Succeed: Get Started In Business Programme and how you can apply for up to 10 hours mentoring and a financial assistant package.
