Navigate business ownership in South Carolina with small business mentor Shannon Gonzales

The same organization that sponsors artisan markets throughout Bluffton and Port Royal, SC is now hosting “Seize Your Startup,” a 30-day business mentor program for anyone considering starting a business.

Led by Shannon Gonzalez, vice president of Lowcountry Made, “Seize Your Startup” will take entrepreneurs through local and state licensing requirements, basic tax requirements, marketing and pricing products.

The initial session will take 1.5 hours, and will prepare attendees to move confidently in the direction of business ownership. There are four weeks of follow-up that will tap into Shannon’s expertise in pricing, marketing, preparing for markets and basic taxes. The cost is $395.
