The CCBCC Business Blueprint is a signature program designed by Entrepreneurs for Entrepreneurs because growing a small business is hard work, but not impossible! Entrepreneurs shouldn’t expect to simply start a business and become rich overnight. True Entrepreneurial success stems from major investments of time and energy.
The step by step program is designed to assist Entrepreneurs with the critical foundation to scale and catapult their business to the next level. There is an application process, zero financial costs to the participant, and each participant is required to attend a monthly, four-hour program that is facilitated by CCBCC Representatives and leading, top-notch business owners.
It is mandatory that each participant invest their time to attend the monthly sessions and complete the curriculum, surveys and assessments per program guidelines. In addition, the program delivers key information and tools to obtain certification as minority suppliers and provides the knowledge to work with government contractors.
CCBCC is dedicated to help Collin County Entrepreneurs grow, maintain and operate as very successful companies!
