Your Small Business Resource
The Alaska Small Business Development Center (SBDC) provides free, confidential technical business assistance and low-cost business training. We’ve been helping Alaskan businesses begin, prosper, and grow – for over twenty years.
Business Planning: Know the Small Business Life Cycle
Running a successful business involves vision and preparation. We’ve assembled a timeline-oriented list of business strategy questions — grouped into five life cycle phases — that will get you thinking about solutions to challenges that may be just around the corner.
Low-Cost Business Workshops
The Alaska SBDC provides workshops and seminars on many indispensable topics, from creating a business plan to mastering profits (and everything in between). Workshops are held in our six hub locations: Anchorage, Bethel, Juneau, Ketchikan, Soldotna and Wasilla. See the upcoming workshops available in your area.
New Webinar at the SBDC!
June 13th, 2013
Brilliant Marketing! is a 1 1/2 hour workshop that covers a comprehensive, organized way for any business to approach marketing based on the psychology of rapport, research, and statistics. It is brilliantly simple and straight-forward and breaks down the barriers that typically prevent successful marketing: lack of knowledge, money, and time.
Time: 10-11:30am
Location: Anchorage SBDC & Webinar
