Nevada TeleCenter offers plan training to business owners

The Nevada TeleCenter is offering a three-part program helping small business owners and hopeful entrepreneurs write a successful business plan on December 3, 10, and 17 from 8 to 10 a.m. A Business Plan is the most important means you can use as a business owner to set and achieve goals, outline strategies, provide background information, secure funding, and ensure the success of your business. Your Business Plan is your blueprint for success. It is equally as important to develop and follow a business plan for a start up business as it is for an existing business.

During this three week, six hour training, you will learn: The difference between a feasibility plan and a business plan, the purpose of a business plan, the components of a successful plan, how to write a winning business plan, funding sources for start ups and established businesses, and information gathering ideas.

The program is being delivered throughout the state of Missouri via the Missouri TeleCenter Network, an interactive video network managed by the University of Missouri Extension.

Participants will be able to see and hear the presenter, and the presenter will be able to see and hear the participants so that questions can be answered.

The program should be of special interest to start up and established businesses in the area. Seating is limited so pre-registration is required. To register call the Nevada TeleCenter at 417-448-1212. The Nevada TeleCenter is located in the Bowman Building, 2015 N. West Street, Nevada, MO.
