Why Not Now? A “Farm to Fork” Approach to Launching Your First IEC Business
The world of college admissions advising is as complex as ever. Yet despite its ever-changing landscape, your voice as an IEC is needed now more than ever.
This two-part workshop is specifically designed for the new or emerging IEC and those who have little to no experience in forming their own small, private business. Through an engaging mix of lectures, paired activities and take-home assignments, these workshops will help you overcome any fears or uncertainties you may have as you begin your journey toward your first IEC business.
From the first stages of creating a business brand, considering your PR strategies, to ultimately implementing a successful business plan, presenter Armando Diaz will walk you through how to approach this task by using his own experiences and proven best practices to make your IEC goals a living, breathing reality.
