Do you know someone who wants to start a business….
…But may be wondering how to do it well and limit risk?
We’re holding a bootcamp to prepare people to start a business (or if they’ve started and are just not sure they know what they need to stay on track…)
We’re giving gift cards for any referrals to this mini-program
Building Blocks to Business Bootcamp: ** (Friday May 14 – Saturday May 15)
Think about it: are you tired of the extra pressure of working for someone else? Of doing the work that someone dumps on your desk? Work that may have very little meaning? (At least to you?)
You may already be working from home. Wouldn’t you love to stay there – only be doing something for your family, doing something that has an impact on the world, or working on your own business – for your family and for you? Putting your family’s schedules and needs first?

Is this the right time to start a business…. In the middle of a pandemic?
Well… yes. It can be. Why?
Businesses have learned a lot from this pandemic – how to get around restrictions and what is needed to grow – even in this environment
Vaccinations have begun to be distributed widely which means although we’ll be restricted for a little while – it giving new businesses time to prepare.
Finally, typically an economic downturn is followed more often than not by accelerated business growth. The economy actually began to recover last summer as businesses opened up…
And BDC (the Business Development Bank of Canada) has projected a growth rate of 4.5% GDP this year (assuming vaccinations continue).
Now is the time to learn what you need to do to start a successful business!
But: What if you don’t know where to start?
What if you could benefit by learning how to reduce the risk of starting a new business as we come out of a pandemic?
Building Blocks to Business Bootcamp is a 1 1/2-day event from May 14 – 15th in which we will prepare potential business owners to start their businesses with confidence. Note: our original time frame was postponed a week to allow people to better manage their schedules in a lockdown.
