Starting a business does not necessarily require external funding or raising a lot of money through startup or venture sources. In fact, self-funding a business is very common. But if you do go down this path, how can you increase your odds of success? How should you decide how much money you need and when to say goodbye to your day job?
In this workshop, you will learn how to:
- Evaluate funding options.
- Market-prove your idea.
- Build an emergency cushion.
- Develop your financial goals.
- Determine whether your business model is financially sustainable.
This class is presented in partnership with DC Public Library.
