Thinking about starting your own business, or in the beginning stages of doing so? Have you considered all the tax and legal information you need to know to move forward? Do you have any fears of failure when it comes to starting your own business?
 
This session is for you!
 
The Waukesha County Center for Growth presents a unique opportunity for entrepreneurs and new business owners to learn both legal entity and tax business basics AND necessary techniques to overcome the fears associated with starting and running your own business.
