Are you all set to achieve your goals and take your business where you want to in 2018?
It can be tough running a small business on your own. As well as being an expert at what you do, you need a wide range of essential business skills including marketing, sales, finance, budgeting and much more.
But with limited time and resources, how can you equip yourself with the knowledge and skills necessary for you to be able to grow your business?
Working exclusively with micro and small businesses, this is a challenge we recognise at Inca, and it’s why each year, we deliver our own unique programme of affordable, bite-sized workshops, each addressing a specific topic and delivered by an industry expert.
As well as being jargon-free, interactive, and a great way to learn vital business skills, our workshops are an opportunity to meet and network with other like-minded business owners – and we’ve just confirmed our workshop programme for 2018!
