Business Sheffield are excited to launch a brand new series of 7 Business Start-up Power Hour workshops.
These FREE, one-hour, in-person sessions are designed to give aspiring entrepreneurs the knowledge and confidence to take the first steps in starting a business. Each workshop focuses on a key topic and gives you the opportunity to ask questions, learn practical tools, and connect with others who are also starting their journey.
You can attend one session or join multiple workshops across the series depending on what support you need.
In this session, “How much cash will I need to start my business?”, we will explore the typical costs involved in starting a business and how to plan for them. From stock and equipment to website development, marketing, rent, wages, fit-out costs, IT, and everyday expenses, and more this workshop will help you understand what you may need to budget for before launching your business.
By the end of the session, you will have a clearer picture of the potential start-up costs and how to begin planning your finances with confidence.
*** Spaces are limited if you can’t make an event, it’s no problem as long as you let us know before the workshop. If you sign-up and don’t attend an event, we will contact you afterwards to check in and if this happens more than once, it may jeopardise your ability to sign up to future events.
