Press Release:

    Starting a small business is often a challenge, but Beaufort County Community College's Business and Industry Services can make the process easier by helping budding entrepreneurs write a business plan.

    A seminar, "How to Write a Business Plan," will be held 3 to 5 p.m. Monday, Jan. 13, in Room 828 of Building 8 on the BCCC campus. The seminar is free of charge but pre-registration is encouraged so that the college can adequately prepare materials. Seating is limited.

    A business plan is the foundation for success when future business owners are deciding whether to start a new business or buy an existing business. It is also a valuable tool for entrepreneurs seeking financing for their businesses. Some of the topics to be discussed in the seminar are writing the business plan, finding the required information, issues to be aware of when writing the plan and how to find help with the plan.

    The seminar is sponsored by BCCC's Business and Industry Services and the Washington/Beaufort County Chamber of Commerce.

    Volunteers from SCORE will be the instructors for the course.

    The seminar is free but pre-registration is requested to ensure the adequate preparation of materials. To pre-register for the seminar, contact Eva Peartree at (252) 940-6375 or by email at evap@beaufortccc.edu. During the Christmas and New Year's holidays, you may leave a message on the telephone answering machine and your telephone call will be returned.
