This practical, hands-on workshop is designed for aspiring entrepreneurs eager to launch a unique service-based business online, such as one that focuses on intuitive reading, life coaching, remote viewing, social media marketing, online personal assistance, professional artistry or design, education, or any work you can do from home.

The transition from a student or amateur mindset to a confident, paid professional can be uncomfortable and confusing. Overcome the myths and fears that starting a business has to be difficult or expensive.

While we’ll focus on an online-based business, we will also cover considerations for having an external workspace.
