From Idea to Income: The Entrepreneurial Leap – Are you ready?

Feb 24 6:00 pm — 8:00 pm

Event Details

The idea of starting your own business is exciting—but it isn’t always clear where to start. If you’ve been dreaming of turning a passion, skill, or experience into income but don’t know where to begin, this workshop will give you the clarity and confidence to take your first real steps.

This workshop breaks down the big decision into a practical roadmap with specific actions to help you move from “someday” to “today.” You’ll take away the knowledge and resources you need to determine whether working for yourself is the right step for you.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to identify and avoid common pitfalls, scams, and expensive mistakes
  • How to assess the benefits and risks of self-employment to help you make an informed decision
  • Simple exercises and tools to pinpoint the business idea that truly fits your strengths and lifestyle
  • A step-by-step overview of what it takes to launch—from concept to your first customer

Instructor Laurie Zerga has advised companies of all sizes on how to double sales in as little as three to six months using marketing and sales strategies. She brings over 20 years of corporate background and experience growing her own company, Chef-K Inc., to an international presence.
