Many individuals have the dream and desire to someday own a business. Unfortunately, many of these same people don’t know where to start. Moreover, they are afraid to make that leap into entrepreneurship because they do not know enough about taxes, licenses, financing, and marketing. If this sounds like you, make plans to attend “Starting a Business: the First Steps,” a University of Missouri Extension seminar. The seminar will be 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM, April 30, 2010, at the University of Missouri Extension office, 4125 Mitchell Ave., St. Joseph, MO.
The instructor for the seminar is Tom Kelso, MU extension Northwest Region business development specialist. He will review the basics involved in starting your own business, explain the importance of planning, discuss the legal and regulatory requirements; and identify sources of funding, and steps which should be taken to market your product or service.
Pre-registration for the seminar is suggested either by calling or e-mailing Tom Kelso, MU extension business development specialist at 660-446-3724 or kelsot@missouri.edu,. The registration fee is $35 and payable when you attend the class.
