| Description: |
To contend with today's economic climate and challenges, many savvy nonprofits are learning to diversify their revenue through earned income, or social enterprise. While earned income is not for everyone, most nonprofits will find they have ready assets in what they already do, what they already know and what they already have that can be leveraged into earned income. This audio conference will discuss the steps required to become a successful social entrepreneur, from organizational assessment, to asset development, market research and feasibility, costing and financing, sales planning and finally, business planning.
Target Audience
Mid, Senior, Advanced level and Board leaders.
