December 26, 2007The SBA offers free online training that I think any small business owner should be taking advantage of. The available courses are identified by topic. The 35+ courses are all self-paced and should take about 30 - 45 minutes each to complete. Some courses are multi part. Most require a brief online registration.
Personally, I would recommend the following courses as a good sampler:
- Cash Flow and Accounting - step by step of what is expected when starting a new business
- Accounting Help - Find out how to keep track of you finances using the standard accounting tools, balance sheet, income statement, depreciation, and amortization. From Business Town.
- Small Business Primer: Guide to Starting a Business
- Starting Your Small Business*
- Business Plan Workshops
- Identify Your Target Market
- How to Start a Business on a Shoestring Budget By Trump University
- Understanding Taxes
- Tax & Accounting Basics
Can you think of anything more fun to do on a Friday or Saturday nite than take a class on accounting or taxes??? (laughing my head off - only I might think that was a cool thing to do…!!)
Seriously, there is some really good information in these courses and if you could take 2-3 hours every week for the month of January to go through the ones I recommend above, you will be immeasurably smarter financially and business-wise in only a few weeks!
Horaayy..there are 2 comment(s) for me so far ;)
You may not be the only one who thinks spending a Saturday night this way is fun. Great minds think alike!
I am so glad that there are other perverted folks out there who think this would be a fun thing to do on a Friday or Saturday nite! Thanks for joining my small club, Miss Heather!
