Bundle: Starting Your Business
There are more than 28 million small businesses in the United States, making up a whopping 99.7 percent of all U.S. businesses, according to the Small Business Administration. When you consider some of the most popular reasons to start a business, including having a unique business idea, designing a career that has the flexibility to grow with you, working toward financial independence, and investing in yourself - it's no wonder that small businesses are everywhere.
But not every small business is positioned for success. In fact, only about two-thirds of businesses with employees survive at least two years, and about half survive five years. So you may be in for a real challenge when you decide to take the plunge, ditch your day job, and become a full time business owner. So making sure you follow all of the necessary steps when starting your business, can set the foundation for ultimate success.
In this 12 Course Bundle, you will learn the required steps to start a business successfully. From accounting and marketing, to business plans and website design, you'll be on your way to a successful small business launch and ownership!
