Build a solid foundation, and start your business right.
With this ROPE service, we'll demystify the concept of a business. We share a checklist of startup items, and show you how easy it is to gather together the basic startup components: a business license, an Employer Identification Number (EIN), and any permits or professional licenses you might need.
We walk you through some of the pitfalls that first-time business owners make and offer ways to avoid them. We also help build a team of advisors that you can rely on as your business grows.
There's a lot to get done when opening a business, but by following a few basic steps you can better ensure that you are the one running your business — and that your business is not running you!
Basic Business Start-up training is available as a workshop or a one-on-one counseling service.
