NEW- Simple Steps for Starting Your
Business eLearning Modules
Volunteers and chapters agree that
the Simple Steps for Starting Your Business (SSSB) is a great program! The
SCORE Foundation and Canon have made it possible for SCORE to create eLearning
modules that will expand the reach of the SSSB program. Now, aspiring
small business owners throughout the country will be able to take advantage of
the program’s valuable content regardless of their location. There are many
parts of the country that may not have a local SCORE chapter, much less one
that offers the SSSB workshop series. These eLearning modules help bridge the
gap.
See the program here: www.score.org/getstarted.
The five modules are a condensed
version of the five workshops that make up the SSSB program. Throughout each of
the modules, clients are encouraged to seek a mentor to help them work through
the material, and where possible, attend the local SSSB workshop
series. Benefits of one-on-one and in-person interactions are frequently
touted.
We fully expect these modules to
drive clients to SCORE chapters for mentoring and to participate in local
workshops where they can.
In order to help you be proactive,
at the end of each month, chapters will receive a list of “attendees” of the
eLearning modules for that month. With this information, you can:
·
Proactively reach out to the attendees to pair them with a mentor in your
chapter.
·
Follow up and let the attendee know about your local workshop offering, if
applicable.
·
Add names and contact information of attendees to your Constant Contact list.
(Note: You must ask them to opt in to your list, you cannot automatically add
them without asking them to join your mailing list.)
These modules would not have been
possible without the SCORE Foundation and Canon. Thanks also to the following
SCORE volunteers who served as subject matter experts in the development of
these new Simple Steps for Starting Your Business eLearning modules!
