Description
Want to grow your business? If so, you'd better have a good plan. At the May Small Business Roundtable, SCORE volunteer Carl Baumann will cover the two phases of business planning: writing a business plan and creating a strategic plan. Baumann will help Roundtable attendees move into the strategic planning phase of business development, helping them grow their organizations over the long-term. Baumann retired in 2005 after 34 years in business. He spent six years in commercial banking and 28 years with the Miller Brewing Company in numerous financial positions. Baumann is a volunteer with SCORE and specializes in counseling in business planning, strategic planning, general management and management financial analysis.The Roundtable is free, but space is limited, so registration is required. To register, contact Laura Morrison at 919.357.9989 or lmorrison@carolinachamber.org.
