ASHEVILLE SCORE SEMINARS (An Overview)
Save $5 by registering online! See our Registration
page.
Pre-Registration is suggested as seating is limited
The greatest asset you can have to run your business successfully
is knowledge. Knowledge generates ideas and from ideas great fortunes
are built... just ask Bill Gates. We have developed ten seminars
to help you acquire the knowledge you need to propel your business
forward.
Experienced business professionals who "know their way around
the territory" are your instructors at each seminar. A copy
of the presentation is always available for you to keep and many
seminars have supplemental materials, as well. You can also benefit
from our free, one-on-one follow-up counseling to help you implement
what you have learned.

Season Pass:
We now offer a "Season Pass" option
that allows you to attend all seminars for a one time
fee of $125 (and save $95), paying as little as $17.85 for
7 seminars. If you miss a seminar this semester,
you can take it the next semester; so you really can't lose.
Also, if your business purchases the ticket (ALERT: tax write-off
here), you can allow a different employee to attend different
seminars based on their job needs. |
