Making your way to entrepreneurship

It's not easy starting a new business. One of the first steps is deciding whether entrepreneurship is the right choice for you. Then you have to think about writing a business plan, government regulations and taxes, accounting and finding capital.
In June, I wrote a story about Manasota SCORE offering new courses to help those looking to start a business. The local chapter is offering those courses throughout the remainder of the year and you can view the course schedule at http://www.score-suncoast.org/.
Now another local non-profit is starting a similar program for aspiring and exisitng entrepreneurs. The Central Economic Development Center in Bradenton is starting a free eight-week workshop titled "How to Start a Small Business."
The first class is from 6 p.m.-9 p.m. Thursday at 1301 6th Ave. W., Suite 401, Bradenton. The classes be held at the same time every Thursday through Sept. 23.
To sign up for the workshop, call (941) 744-2984 or e-mail a.hewitt@centraledc.com.
