CO.STARTERS BOOT CAMP with Reinventing Rural
Small Business Entrepreneurship is an exciting journey, but the path forward isn’t always clear. During this 2-day bootcamp, you’ll collaboratively work with peers to strategize, problem-solve, and apply business basics to your idea or venture. Our goal is to challenge you, stretch your thinking, and give you concrete tools to bring your business to life! There will be a light breakfast each morning and lunch will be provided. There is no cost to attend but since seats are limited, please ensure you are available and engaged. Attendance both days is necessary.
Facilitated by Brad Attig with Foundry Collective and Reinventing Rural. Hosted at the Southern Oregon Guild Gallery & Art Center in Kerby, OR.

- Understand your business model and how to refine it using customer input.
- Learn how to market your business and gain customer awareness.
