"Training Your Brain for Prosperity"
Our Workshop Programming
Every business - for profit or nonprofit, start-up or existing - needs a Business Plan and Financial Plan. Why? If you don't know, how can you grow? Do you know how much money you need to launch your start-up? Do you know how much money you need to grow your current company and keep it alive? Do you have a safety cushion to live on until your business starts making money? How much money you need to generate for your operations, your pay, your employees, your marketing, your new laptop and tablet? You get the picture. Your customers and clients need to know who you are, what your product and service is, and how to find you. All of that takes money.
We have shortened our workshop schedule. There wil only be three workshops in each cycle, one workshop every three weeks. We will continue to offer one full-day and two-day seminars. Our complimentary financial coaching can be scheduled anytime. Please email us at thepowerofwca@gmail.com.
