The next Business Building Workshop
We knew the Business Building workshop had been a success.
And now we have proof. This is what Lesley Dever, one of the participants, had to say about it:
“I've arrived home safely feeling very satisfied with the course and the connections I have made with you both.
“There was something about coming to Sardinia to do the course that enhanced the whole experience. It seems to make sense to be in the environment and immersed in the culture in which you are trying to create your business. Apart from the myriad of useful information and discussion, I felt very heard and understood by both of you and, indeed, throughout the trip felt very well cared for and respected for the ideas and experience that I brought to the course.
I feel very excited and energised by it all. I also made a business connection on the flight on the way home to Glasgow.”
That testimonial means a lot to us because we prefer to build up a rapport with each person on the workshop rather than trying to cram as many people into the seminar room as possible.
That's why we're limiting our next Business Building workshop to just six people.
If you think you have an idea for a business in Italy, why not book a place?
Running from Friday, September 29 2006 until Sunday, October 1 2006, Mario and I will share our experiences of starting businesses in Italy and work with you to make your expat entrepreneur dreams also come true.
We guarantee that by the end of the workshop, you'll have started to transform your vague business idea into reality by breaking it down into a series of goals.
What's more, we will become as passionate about your idea as you and give you all the encouragement and support you need to take the plunge and start a business in Italy.
During the weekend, you will also:
Explore your business idea in detail
Have a one-to-one chat with Emma and Mario to discuss what you need to do to take your concept forward
Kickstarted your network in Italy
Learnt about business etiquette and culture clash
Found out tips and tricks for marketing your business without splashing the cash
Have an introductory session to Italian taxes
But just as important, you will stay in a lovely B&B where the Sardinian owners go to great lengths to make you feel welcome and you'll get the chance to dine out in different restaurants each evening to experience the cuisine of the island's Gallura region.
Plus, over breakfast, lunch and dinner, you’ll get the chance to grill Emma and Mario on what living in Italy really means.
The workshop costs just Eur490. That includes the price of the two-day workshop, two-nights' accommodation, meals, refreshments, a welcome aperitivo and transfer to and from Olbia airport.
To book your place on the Doing Business in Italy workshop, send an email to info@howtoitaly.com, stating your name, email address, telephone number and where you live (city and country).
If you want to move to Italy and tap into your true potential as an expat, then contact me for more details.
