Successful business owners have a plan

We have a new perspective and new direction

effort. We highly recommend the Entrepreneurial

Sue and Joe Jar osh, Owners
J acksonport Craft Cottage Gifts

www.JacksonportCraftCottage.com
Sue and J oe attended ETP in the spring
of 2008. Although in business for 24
years, the owners wanted a new plan for
their shop.
Opened in 1984, the quaint Craft Cottage features the original
work of over 60 artists. Owners Sue & J oe J arosh invite you to
visit their “handcrafted” gift headquarters in Door County. The shop
occupies the original main ?oor of an 1860’s era log home that
has been restored. Living quarters, part of the shop and the entire
exterior were renovated in the Spring of 2003 and will give custom-
ers a unique and memorable shopping experience. Stop in for our
“quality” handcrafted original gifts at reasonable prices. We’re open
daily, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. from May-October and most winter week-
ends from 9 - 5 or by appointment if you call 920-823-2288. For
more information visit www.jacksonportcraftcottage.com.

Every business needs a plan!
Whether your business is expanding or brand-new, writing a
business plan is critical to building a pro?table venture, especially to
attract ?nancing from lenders or investors.
We understand the steps to success. So we created the
Entrepreneurial Training Program (ETP) — 10 ef?cient sessions to
help you develop a plan for a thriving, pro?table business.
Writing a business plan can be dif?cult. Staying motivated and
following through is even harder. Our structured approach to
developing the plan will provide the framework you need to ?nish
your plan. Plus, you will receive practical advice from business
professionals, other entrepreneurs and experienced business
counselors. The course focuses on teaching the art of better
business practices while producing a comprehensive business plan
to guide your business decisions and activities.
Why ETP?
Organize and better manage your business.
Identify opportunities and market your business.
Understand and get your business ?nancials in order.
Get funding for your business.
Network with other entrepreneurs.
Develop a network with small business support services.
Write a detailed, comprehensive business plan.
