SBDC taps Profit Mastery founder to teach September workshop

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Aug. 7, 2015) - The Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at Daytona State College, in partnership with James Moore & Co., is offering a second installment of

the internationally-acclaimed Profit Mastery seminar series to area business owners.

The two-day Mini MBA: Business Financial Training Workshop will be taught by renowned Profit Mastery founder and chairman Steve LeFever. The event takes place Sept. 29-30, 8 a.m.-5 p.m., at Daytona State’s Mori Hosseini Center, 1200 W. International Speedway Blvd. in Daytona Beach.

“This is a unique opportunity to learn from the founder of this nationally recognized business growth program,” said SBDC Director Ned Harper. “It’s rare to receive this level of key business competency training without having to travel to a major city. The SBDC is committed not only to helping startups, but also to the long-term success of the area’s small business community by providing quality programs of this kind.”

The workshop will cover such topics as how to monitor financial positions, analyze income statements and cash flow, dealing with banks and investors, and planning for long-term growth.

Thousands of business owners, managers, bankers, accountants and consultants have taken the Profit Mastery courses over the past 25 years. Daytona State’s SBDC hosted the first for the east central Florida area last spring to nearly two dozen local companies.

The cost of the September workshop is $695. Grants and scholarships are available. CPAs who attend also are eligible to receive 16 hours of CPE credits. Seating is limited to 100. To register, call (386) 506-4723 or email SBDC@DaytonaState.edu.
