Sponsored by: Bank of Asheville
Thursday 6:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. (details below)
Registration: $30.00
Save $5 by pre-registering!
The Tom Wolfe best seller and movie, The Right Stuff, tells the story of the first seven Mercury astronauts who bravely rode their primitive capsules into space with full knowledge of the dangers and life-threatening risks they faced. In today’s fast-paced world of commerce, going into your own business can also be a risky venture. If you don’t have the “right stuff” to persevere through the trials and tribulations of starting and running your own business, your chances of success are slim. In this seminar you will learn a winning formula for building a business that can overcome the odds (according to the SBA, 3:1) against success.
Here’s a partial list of the critical topics covered:
- Self-evaluation: the two key personality traits of most successful entrepreneurs, risk tolerance and confrontational tolerance.
- Why 2/3 of new businesses fail: the Michael Gerber E-Myth concept.
- The key role of the win-win-win Business Trifecta.
- Building the Referral-Based Business.
- The role of coaching to your ultimate success.
The goal of the seminar is not to dissuade you from becoming an entrepreneur, but rather to highlight the various pitfalls you will likely encounter and to give you strategies and tactics for success to overcome these challenges. We teach you how to develop the “right stuff” to run your own business in a way that will make you a winner.
