Who exactly is this workshop for?

You've used your business, hobby or volunteer experience to fashion a business concept that you think will be fun and rewarding to run. You're ready to get started...but you just want to make sure that you don't overlook any important details before you invest your time and money.

You want to do more than just say that you're "open for business" - you want to have a ball running your company and you certainly wouldn't mind making a very nice income doing it! You have a clear vision of what owning your own business will offer, including...

  • Being able to do work everyday that you love doing. If your job history up to now has been typical, you've had a few great work assignments...and perhaps more that have been less than great. You're now at the point in your life where first and foremost you want to work out of love, not just need.

  • Working on a more relaxed schedule, built around you and your family's leisure-time activities. You're not necessarily looking to create "a big corporate thing" with your business, just have some fun and make some money working full-time, part-time or just sometime.

  • Taking pride in offering a top-quality product or service with very happy customers. You'd like to hear compliments and share great new ideas with your customers.

  • Boosting your monthly income while tapping as few of your retirement resources as possible. You like the idea of your effort and labor being the primary determinant of the growth of your income...not some arbitrary boss.

Ok, if the above fits you, this workshop is just what you want.

"When I was downsized at age 52, I knew immediately that it was time to start my own business. Thanks to the action oriented planning process presented in the Ultimate Boomer Business
Start-Up Workshop, I've broken through the $100,000 annual sales level and can't believe how my business is growing"!

These are the business management skills that really count.

You'll get at the heart of what it takes to build your business with less struggle and more profit.

When you leave this workshop you'll feel a tremendous breakthrough in each of these seven skills:

Skill #1 - You'll know how to define your target customer and describe what you need to offer them to get them to buy from you.

Skill #2 - You'll learn how to put together a budget and schedule for completing a series of promotional tasks to attract prospective customers with education and useful information, and to make your business rise above your competitors.

Skill #7 - You'll discover how to work with outside service providers and advisors to greatly increase your productivity and to make it a lot more fun to run your business each day.

The Ultimate Boomer Business Start-Up Workshop is much more than your typical workshop where you come back with a few good ideas.

When you walk out of the workshop room, you'll do so with the confidence that you'll soon be ready to officially launch your new business.

"I was quite confident in making the dramatic transformation from corporate CPA to life coach. But I was less sure of how to turn my newly gained skills into a lucrative business. Jeff's insightful and caring coaching, backed by the systematic planning offered in the Boomer Business Start-Up Workshop has enabled me to land several very important promotional opportunities and to help me build a steady income".
