Program
Overview
An entrepreneur with an established business is generating income from an
existing business with substantial and predictably recurring sales. He or she
is facing a business transformation or otherwise considering a new opportunity
to increase sales and/or rationalize costs.
The Wharton SBDC Program for
Entrepreneurs with Established Businesses begins with
two Introductory
Meetings, where through two sessions you will meet
our professional staff, learn about the program, and
begin your consulting engagement. In these sessions you
will gain insight into your own business through the
analysis of other clients' experiences as well as your
own.
When you have completed both
sessions of the Introductory
Meetings, you will be assigned a consultant
with whom you will meet for multiple one-on-one sessions.
You will work together with your consultant on
a well-defined project, generally lasting two to four
months, focused on achieving meaningful results.
These engagements are designed to support the entrepreneur
in identifying and beginning to execute the steps
that will lead to improvements consistent with the
entrepreneur’s business goals. The Wharton SBDC
consultants are MBA candidates, all of whom have between
four and twelve years of business experience. In addition, both
our consultants and clients are supported by our
experienced, professional staff.
After a specific project has
reached its conclusion, the Wharton SBDC continues to
support our clients. When a project is concluded, the
client may be supported with advice and other
support.
If you are an established
business as defined above, please register
for the Introductory Meetings to begin your
consulting engagement.
