We offer free seminars and workshops, as well as paid courses and conferences covering various topics like starting a business, basic management, planning, record-keeping, industry-specific matters, government contracts, international trade, marketing, and social media. We tailor these to your requests and needs.
We also provide free consulting at аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±¼Ç¼ locations or your place of business. Our consultants will chat with you to figure out your needs, problems, and opportunities — then, we create a plan to address those needs. To help, we have access to lots of info for small businesses on demographics, taxes, financing, marketing, and more.
