Workshop #1: Business Set-up (or Revamp) Essentials

Ready to start your business the right way—without wasting time, money, or energy on the wrong things? This action-packed workshop is designed for new and early-stage business owners who want clarity, confidence, and a clean path forward.

Forget the generic “how to start a business” advice. We’ll walk you through what those guides leave out—and what actually matters when you're trying to build something real.

In this workshop led by Small Business Expert Cheryl Lantz you'll discover:

✅ The 5 critical systems every business needs from day one (even if it’s just you)

✅ Smart, simple tech tools for email, phone, scheduling, and web presence—so nothing falls through the cracks

✅ How to handle pricing, collect payments, and set expectations with clients like a pro

✅ Real-world insight from someone who’s been there—so you can avoid common traps and move faster

You’ll walk away with: A focused checklist and setup guide that works in the real world—not just on paper. It’s everything you need to get your business organized, professional, and ready to grow—with zero fluff.

Perfect for: Solo entrepreneurs, and side-hustlers ready to build something real

Let’s build your business on purpose—not panic. Join us!

Frequently asked questions

Who is this workshop for?

Early-stage business owners, side-hustlers turning pro, or anyone who wants to launch (or relaunch) with clarity and confidence.

Can I attend if I’ve already started my business?

Absolutely. If you’re feeling disorganized, unsure, or ready to reset your foundation—this workshop is a great way to reenergize and refocus.

Do I need to have anything set up before attending?

Nope! Come as you are—whether you're still in idea mode or already taking clients. You’ll leave with tools that fit wherever you're at.

What should I bring?

Bring a notebook, your business questions, and a positive mindset ready to dig into these topics!

Is this just for service businesses?

Not at all. While we focus on real-world systems that work great for service businesses, the tools and strategies apply to ecommerce, marketing, creative industries, and more.

What if I can’t attend all 6 workshops?

No problem! Each workshop stands alone, so you can attend just the ones you need. But if you want the full advantage, there’s a discounted series pass available.

Is this tax-deductible as a business expense?

Yes - most likely. Always check with your accountant, but education and professional development like this often qualify.
