A huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped make our “How Do You Start a Business or Franchise?” workshop such a success!

We are so grateful to ISBDC (Indiana Small Business Development Center), 1st Source Bank, franchise owner Katie Cass, and Deb Wappel with Maxwell Leadership for sharing your knowledge, experience, and valuable insights with our community. 👏

From learning about starting a business to understanding the opportunities and challenges of franchising, the information shared was super informative, practical, and inspiring! And, of course, we had a great time along the way! 😊
