According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 50% of businesses fail by their fifth year. Small business consultant Andrew Frazier asserts that, “One of the primary reasons for business failures is the knowledge gap. For that reason, we created the Small Business Pro University, an online learning portal open to current business owners and those aspiring to become business owners, anywhere.”
The SBProU has been designed to improve skills and knowledge so business owners can learn, grow and profit, according to Frazier. The ultimate goal is to take a business owner from working in his or her business to working on their business, in order to create a sustainable enterprise. The online university will feature over 50 courses taught by more than 20 instructors, who are successful business owners, providing knowledge on nearly any business topic ranging from financing to sales and marketing, to operations and more. The SBPro university allows busy people to consume valuable content affordably, according to their own schedules.
The virtual open house will take place on Oct. 29 at 7 PM EST, accessible by Zoom. Those interested should go to: www.SBProU.com and register for the event.
