Pop-up Accelerator

Starting a brick-and-mortar business can be an overwhelming prospect. Many companies start by participating in pop-up events, festivals, and fairs. This program walks aspiring and new entrepreneurs through the steps to be successful in these temporary opportunities – from refining sales pitches to designing space and determining pricing.

The foundation of all successful businesses is stable and predictable personal finance.  For individuals who don’t know their credit scores, want to improve their credit scores, or gain strategies to create budgets and consistently manage their spending and savings, Secure Futures is a values-based financial empowerment training and coaching program that helps people understand their finances from the ground up, and how to use them to make their dreams come true.

Start Smart Class

Over the span of this four week course, participants will create a Business Model Canvas– a powerful tool that assists you in constructing their mission and vision, refining their business strategy, and assessing the feasibility of their product or service.

Business Prep Class

For graduates of Start Smart or for those already operating their own businesses, our Business Prep program is designed to enhance business skills, develop financial strategies, craft a detailed action plan, and foster networking opportunities with fellow entrepreneurs and expert consultants.
