Topics to be Covered:
Small Business Today What does it take to run a business these days? What are the impacts on me, my family, my time, my health, my social life? What are the benefits of running a business? Can I take something I love to do and make money from it? Do I have what it takes to succeed as a business person? Who can help me? These are all typical questions a business person needs to ask themselves when starting out in business. They are questions many business owners forget to ask and wish they had have before they commit themselves to a business and all it costs. This workshop helps you answer those and many more questions you need to have answers to.
Researching Your Business – Developing the Business Plan Here is a frightening statement – the majority of new businesses fail in the first 3 years. Let’s face it, they never intended that to happen. It just did. One major factor is that most businesses are set up with very little planning. It’s only after they open doors do they find that there is more to running a business then being good at what they do. There’s marketing. There’s financing. There’s cash flow and growth expectations. This workshop will show you how to plan the future of your business. It shows how to predict those times of greatest sales and when to expect those dreaded expenses. It will help target your marketing and how to grow your business. For many businesses it’s the difference between being hugely successful and shutting the doors for good. It’s called The Business Plan
Marketing & Sales; Legal Issues Fair Trading? Consumer Credit? Legal Liability? Insurances? Contracts? Guarantees and Warranties? Marketing? Advertising? SPAM and emails? ABN and Tax File numbers? Australian Workplace Agreements? Who needs to know about those things? Only every business person in Australia! Not knowing could land you in really deep and hot water. And how can you grow your business without knowing how to market your business properly. This module gives you all that.
Financial Statements & Talking Business There are some people who love financial statements. For the rest of us there are bookkeepers and accountants. But just what does all that mumbo-jumbo like statistics and current accounts and balance sheets really mean? How would you really know if your accountant was taking you to the bank or to the cleaners? Finances and lack of understanding them is a major cause of business distress. You can avoid this being an issue in your business with this workshop. |
