Boost Flying Start: Business startup essentials

Boost’s Flying Start workshops are for people with a business idea they want to turn into a reality. Business startup essentials is the first in a series of three Boost Flying Start workshops and an opportunity for entrepreneurs to build new and develop existing business skills.

Our workshops are led by an experienced business coach and you will work with like-minded people and have the chance to discuss and develop your new business idea. What you take from each workshop and how you implement the learning is driven by you! Join us to learn more about how to get started in business.

This workshop covers:

• Why is starting a small business important to you?
• What is your business idea? (foundation for business plan, shifting perspective, and learning how to pitch and read the room).
• What’s important to consider for a sustainable small business, how else to generate revenue? (being creative, thinking of numerous ways to generate revenue, engagement and taking on feedback).
• Which business structure is best? (making commercial decisions, sharing past experience, visualisation of business launching)
• Key partners to help launch and grow the business.

This workshop will be led by Flying Start Adviser - Daniel Fenton.
