Everett Community College’s Small Business Accelerator equips established business owners with knowledge, tools and expert guidance necessary to significantly increase their profits.

Participants will apply the latest strategies to grow and improve their business, increase market share and customer loyalty, maximize their return on investment of time and money and design their business to grow faster while working less.

Small Business Accelerator participants typically have a minimum of five years experience running a business, generate about $500,000 to $15 million in sales, and have 10 or more employees. Business owners may also be interested in the Accelerator Foundations program or the Accelerator Advanced program for advanced training opportunities.

The 10-month program includes 50 hours of expert instruction and one-on-one business consulting for $1,700. You will not find a better value to gain the critical skills you need to take your business to the next level of profitability.

The next Small Business Accelerator starts Thursday, Sept. 15. The 2011 group is limited to the first 20 business owners. Schedule a free one-on-one informational meeting with one of our small business experts now at accelerator@everettcc.edu.
