Looking for books + training material for…
Start-Ups. Part-Time. Laid-Off.

SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT COVID-19
With the onslaught of laid off workers, many of them are turning to SBA resource partners for help with selling their talents as a consultant or pivoting to start a business.
With the additional responsibilities of home schooling, caregiving and work demands, your advisors may be stretched.
Make advising sessions even more productive by giving your clients Action Items to complete on their own and then use advising sessions to focus on strategy rather than business planning 101.
Stay safe. Be well.
