Small Business Workshops

I attended 5 weeks worth of small business workshops. I learned a lot but the workshops were painful.  I do training as part of my job and there is nothing worse then having a poor trainer. I'm sure that the three people who did these workshop were very knowledgeable, but they sure couldn't present.  Can you imagine looking at a PowerPoint presentation from the six slides/page handout?  Yes, the presenter never turned on the computer.  Painful!!!!

There were a lot of handouts and all of the forms I need to complete to officially open the business.  My concern is what type of business do I want?   My goal is to make enough money to buy more supplies and maybe a small profit.  I have many ideas about what I want to do, but I still haven't made any major decisions. It looks like I'll do a LLC when I get this started.  

The presenter in the Marketing workshop didn't like the title of my future business - Sahmsations.  I know it doesn't tell you anything about the business, but how about this tag -  Sahmsations - Quality handmade cards and gifts.  I already have the domain name for my web site, so I think I'll stick with it.  Besides, wouldn't you want an original Sahmsation creation???
