We understand the sense of urgency you have in wanting to start your business as soon as possible. This sense of urgency can be your best friend and/or your worse enemy and often both. It is easy to become swept away in what Michael Gerber author of The E-Myth describes as an entrepreneurial seizure. (This book is available though major book sellers or get a copy free by attending a scheduled First Steps Workshop.)

The Colorado Mountain College Small Business Resource Center and Yampa Valley SCORE are committed not only to fostering a culture of entrepreneurship but helping you start a small business that works. An important first step in this process is to spend the time necessary to assess the feasibility of your business idea. This is not a delay or an unnecessary step. It is a step critical if you plan to be successful. We can assure you that this will be time well spent.

If you feel you have a well-developed business concept – we suggest you begin completing the Business Feasibility Workbook. If you feel that the business concept you are considering could use some refinement and/or you want to learn more about what is involved in starting a business consider taking the free on-line course offered by My Own Business.
