Part of
RiverLink's mission is to stimulate the economic and environmental heath of the
French Broad River watershed through arts & crafts, recreation (retail,
manufacturing, enjoyment) and health and wellness (as documented in the
popular Wilma Dykeman RiverWay Plan). To further that effort, RiverLink and the
Small Business and Technology Development Center (SBTDC) are pleased to
announce a seminar focused on encouraging entrepreneurship and the nuts and
bolts of starting a business in the French Broad River Watershed.
"Starting
A Better Business" will be held on Thursday, January 23, from 10:00 to
12:00 at RiverLink's Warehouse Studios, 170 Lyman Street in the heart of the
River Arts District.
Noah
Raper from SBTDC will cover the following topics:
-- how to assess your business
ownership skills
-- how to assess the feasibility
of your business idea
-- the parts of a business
plan
-- the different types of
business formations (sole proprietorship, LLC, partnerships, etc.)
-- required licenses
-- financing options
Session handouts will include a business plan outline, additional
planning documents, and helpful resources to guide your business planning
process. There will be an opportunity for discussion and to ask questions about
specific aspects of business. These sessions are free and open to anyone
