PLAN FOR GROWTH FALL COHORT
Interested in joining the +100 businesses that have taken SBIDC’s Plan for Growth? This Fall take a hard look at your business with the guidance of consultant Elli Papadopoulos of the Skopos Collective and guest instructors in the fields of financing, marketing, HR and beyond. 

As we prepare for the October launch of the next cohort, we wanted to gauge scheduling preferences for how to structure the sessions. In the past, we’ve utilized a once-weekly half-day model across 10 weeks. Alternatively, we are considering a bootcamp format of classes once weekly for a full day across 5 weeks. Please let us know in our poll if you prefer either approach or have other thoughts!

We’ll follow up in the coming weeks when our application for the Plan for Growth Fall cohort goes live. In the meantime, if you want more information or have any questions, reach out to Micaela Skoknic at mskoknic@sbidc.org.


What our alumni are saying:

“Between education and inspiration, the most productive four hours of my week” 

“Plan for Growth is a must take course for any entrepreneur or small business. It will help you get your ducks in a row, see your flaws and execute what you need to focus on as a business”

Please reach out if you have any questions or if SBIDC can assist your business in any way.
 
Sincerely,
Jesse Solomon
Executive Director
