Many business books tell you how to start a business, but they don't focus on answering the most important question of all: Should I start a business?
Event Details
The thought of business ownership is a promising one if you're dealing with a boss who makes you want to scream, a job that is less than exciting, or a career path that doesn't look promising. The idea of "doing what you love" is enticing as the tools to start—and build—a business are more accessible than ever. However, what does it actually mean to do what you love? What is a day in the life of a business owner really like, and what does it take to build a profitable business, not just tinker with your favorite hobby and make an occasional sale?
In this interactive webinar, you will learn more about the entrepreneurial journey and complete two self-assessments to get you moving from wondering to knowing. This talk is an introduction to presenter Angela Lussier's new book, Who's With Us? From Wondering to Knowing if You Should Start a Business in 21 Days. Rather than ponder this path for a lifetime, attend this webinar and go from "Would it work?" to "I know what I'm going to do next."
