Not having the money&nbsp;to start a business or create a product is the number one reason aspiring entrepreneurs don&rsquo;t start. It&rsquo;s also the number one reason early-stage entrepreneurs don&rsquo;t make it far enough to survive. So much incredible talent goes unfulfilled, never released to its full potential. Many great product ideas and services never get into the world to make it a better place; and so much wealth and happiness is not created &mdash; often because of the basic unavailability and&nbsp;inaccessibility of startup capital.

But&nbsp;there are ways to make it happen&nbsp;&mdash; yes,&nbsp;even with very little of your own money and no magic wand, let alone generous family members, investors, loans, grants, or winning pitch prize money. Step one? Get educated on your options.

In fact, nearly 80% of small businesses in the U.S. are self-funded&nbsp; &mdash; and so were some of the most famous companies in the world such as Apple, Nike, GoPro, Dell, Coca-Cola, MailChimp, RxBar, Under Armour, Wayfair, Tough Mudder, Shopify, and so many more.

&nbsp;In this workshop, you&rsquo;ll learn:

<ul>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">The two best ways to self-fund your product or services business</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">Four more options for self-funding your product or services business</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">The single most important thing you must do, in all cases, if you self-fund</li>
</ul>

&nbsp;

Who this workshop is for:

<ul>
	<li>Aspiring and early entrepreneurs that want to learn alternatives to friends &amp; family money, investor money, loans, and grants</li>
	<li>Aspiring and early entrepreneurs that are action-oriented, bold, and relentlessly determined to succeed</li>
</ul>

&nbsp;

Who this workshop is NOT for:

<ul>
	<li>Small business owners who want to evolve&nbsp;their financial resourcefulness and business acumen&nbsp;and literacy</li>
	<li>Those who&nbsp;are risk-averse, cautious, and not ready to be highly-creative and highly-resourceful</li>
</ul>

 
Value Add: 
Three specific tools will be shared that can be utilized to self-fund with very little of your own money.

Done-For-You Website &amp; Google Business Profile | Up to 76% off with code&nbsp;HELLOALICE

One of the best ways to get your local business to rank higher on Google is to claim and optimize your business&rsquo;s&nbsp;Google Business Profile&nbsp;(formerly known as Google My Business.) If your local business qualifies, getting your company listed on Google Business Profile increases your chances of showing up in&nbsp;Google&rsquo;s&nbsp;Local Pack,&nbsp;Local Finder&nbsp;and &ndash; depending on what type of business you have --&nbsp;Google Maps.&nbsp;

What most businesses don&rsquo;t realize is verifying your Business Profile is just the&nbsp;first&nbsp;step. There are&nbsp;many&nbsp;features, rules/guidelines and strategies that you must be aware of. 
 
&nbsp;In this workshop you will learn:

<ul>
	<li>What businesses are eligible for Google Business Profiles and how to set up&nbsp;your&nbsp;type of business properly</li>
	<li>Why you must frequently check your Google Business Profile for changes -- or else!</li>
	<li>Ways to get more reviews and what you should do about negative reviews</li>
	<li>Things that can get your profile suspended</li>
	<li>And More!</li>
</ul>

 
Exercise 
We will walk through how to manage your Google Business Profile on Google Search. 
 
Who is this workshop for:

<ul>
	<li>local businesses that meet with local clients either&nbsp;at your location&nbsp;(storefront or office)</li>
	<li>or, if you are a service business that goes out to your customers to service them&nbsp;at their location&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

 
Who this workshop is&nbsp;NOT&nbsp;for:

<ul>
	<li>Not for you if you are an&nbsp;online-only&nbsp;business</li>
	<li>Not for you if you work out of a co-working or virtual office</li>
	<li>If you do not rent out a dedicated office with permanent signage and have&nbsp;your&nbsp;employees staffed in the office during business hours, this workshop is not for you (you are not eligible for a Google Business Profile.)&nbsp; 
	&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

What YOU should come prepared with 
If you have your Google Business Profile claimed already, you are encouraged to have your Profile pulled up on your screen so you can review as we go through the presentation. If you&nbsp;don&rsquo;t&nbsp;have your Google Business Profile claimed, don&rsquo;t worry! You will learn how to set up your business properly.&nbsp; 
 
*Come to the workshop prepared with your official/formal/legal business name, address and phone number.*

Value Add 
As a bonus for attending you will receive a Google Business Profile Resource list so you can quickly find helpful information.
