SmallBizU



SmallBizU is a collection of interactive products for small business delivered through the internet anytime, anywhere.

 

SmallBizU is composed of three products...

  • SmallBizU Online Academy:

    A collection of twenty-two online courses designed to teach entrepreneurs the “3Ms"—Money, Marketing, and Management. This is done through a no-frills curriculum that provides small businesses with real world tools and information. Each course is delivered via the internet full of animated slides accompanied by voice-over narration, PowerPoint presentations, worksheets, toolsets, and access to a comprehensive knowledgebase.  It provides you with the management fundamentals needed to fund, market, and grow a business. Its online delivery method allows you to progress at your own pace and is delivered just when you need it.

  • Pitch-Then-Plan Business Planning System:

    A business planning technique that quickly translates business ideas into business plans. The process starts with a ten-slide business “pitch” which covers the essentials of the business and how it operates. The next step is to complete the “plan.” The plan takes each slide of the ten-step pitch and drills down to the next layer of detail. Finally, the process is completed by taking the money assumptions from each of the slides and creating a financial projection for the business.  It provides you with a sense of clarity about the few things that matter most. By limiting the discussion about the business, the process forces you to be clear, concise, and concrete about what know and what you will do.

  • Money Training Academy:

    A certificate training program that teaches entrepreneurs the basics of money—where to find it, how to get it, and how to manage it. After each course is completed clients have the opportunity to take two practice quizzes and one test. The test must be passed with an 80% or higher in order to pass the course. Clients can keep track of their progress in using the Money Certificate Control Panel.  It provides you with an increased level financial literacy. You receive a certificate of completion when you complete four of the seven courses and their respective tests (which are favorably viewed by banks and investors).
