Since in any given market economy, entrepreneurs account for the single largest percentage of economic growth, it becomes clear why the success of entrepreneurs factors heavily in the success of the community that they represent. In short, the success of entrepreneurs is a direct reflection of the long term economic success of any market economy. When you are thinking about the customers that you are going to be training, they might be a new business owner or someone who has a really great idea about a business or service that they want to start. Typically, a new business owner, or someone who is just starting out is a person who has so many questions. They can feel overwhelmed at the prospect of starting their business. They want to know whether their idea is marketable. They are trying to decide if their business needs a location or a retail space. The idea of getting a business license is of concern and even knowing how to approach securing this type of documentation may be puzzling. How to go about making their business a reality or take their business or service into the marketplace. As a part of these questions and this new thinking, a new business owner may want to create a plan around implementing their idea. Where do they go to get information about a business plan and what is involved in writing one that will be the foundation of their success. A part of the plan is figuring out where to go for financing and how to approach banks or other lenders. How do they become a corporation if they are interested in going through that legal process. Another question might be what are they going to charge for their business or service.
