SUMMARY:Success Test: Is Your Idea Viable?
DESCRIPTION:This is the 1st session in a 3-part series Building your Business Plan: Formalize Your Ideas. \nDo you have an entrepreneurial idea but are unsure how to turn it into a business? Every business concept needs to be tested for viability before you jump in with both feet. Creating a viable business means not only making a profit\, but also structuring it in a way that fits your life and aligns with your goals and values. We’ll introduce you to the Creating Your Business Plan Workbook\, which we’ll use throughout the series to refine your business ideas. In this session\, you’ll get curious: Who will buy your product? What does a typical day look like running the business? Is your idea unique? Using hands-on activities\, we’ll: \n\nExplore what motivates you;\nDefine your business idea\, who you serve and what problem you solve; and\n Identify the research that will assist in refining your business idea\n\nRegister Here >>>

SUMMARY:Self-Fund Your Business or Use Other People’s Money?
DESCRIPTION:Running out of money is one of the top reasons businesses fail.  Using the ‘right’ money at the ‘right’ time can help you stay in business as well as accelerate your startup or growth. However\, it can be tricky to know when you should self-fund your business and when you should look for sources of debt\, grant or equity funding. \nIf you tend to default to building your business with your own savings\, you’re not alone. According to a recent study by Women’s Enterprise Organizations of Canada (WEOC)\, 88% of women entrepreneurs feel confident managing their business finances\, yet 78% hate owing money and 62% take pride in building their business without external sources of money. \nThere are times when it makes sense to self-fund your business\, and there are times when it makes sense to leverage other peoples’ money. \nOn January 17 our Senior Director of Loans & Advisory Services\, Melanie Rupp\, will explore these different scenarios and answer common financing questions such as: \n\nWhat is the cost of using my own money to grow my business?\nIs it less risky to use my own money?\nDo I need to go into debt to grow my business?\nHow do I know which funding sources are right for my own business?\n\nJoin us to learn how to match your business needs with the right kind of funding! \nOpen to everyone! \nFacilitator: Melanie Rupp\, Senior Director of Loans & Advisory Services\, WeBC \n  \nRegister Here >>>
