5:30 PM – 7:30 PM SCORE: How to Increase Profitability – Part 1 of 2 In Part One, we will review how to define realistic profit goals and ways to manage expenses by covering the following topics:
Budgeting for Profitability – Entrepreneurs often budget by taking last year’s sales and increasing it by a few percent, if they budget at all. This section will take the traditional Revenue – Expenses = Profit equation and turn it around to make sure you are budgeting for profit first.
Determining the Owner’s Profit – Learn how to determine how much profit you should expect your business to generate and how to make sure it actually ends up in your pocket.
Examining Operational Expenses – Entrepreneurs often pay attention to sales and little else. They expect extra sales to result in extra profit, but too often this does not happen. This section examines all categories of operational expense with a goal of significant overhead reduction.
Examining Variable Expenses – We will perform a similar analysis of variable expenses to suggest ways to reduce them and increase gross profit. We will also look at the different impacts of operational versus variable expenses and why you should take steps to move expenses from one category into the other.

12:00 PM – 2:00 PM SCORE: How to Create and Leverage the Power of Business Credit Starting a business takes money, which usually comes from the owners’ pockets. But using personal credit cards and personal loans to build a business can be a double-edged sword, as personal credit is limited, and the more you use it, the worse your score gets. But business credit works in the opposite fashion: the more you use it, the more you can get. This webinar will explain to you the proper sequence for building business credit so that your business can qualify for funds on its own, without your SS# or FICO score. When done right, banks end up chasing you with low-cost or nearly free offers for funding. To register, follow this link >> https://score.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Qla5IFYnRIaRXXIDdSKQvA#/

SCORE: Decision Catalysts: 6 sales & marketing factors that drive customers to say ‘Yes’
10:00 AM – 11:00 AM SCORE: Decision Catalysts: 6 sales & marketing factors that drive customers to say ‘Yes’ In the intricate dance of sales, marketing, and business, understanding what propels a customer or investor towards a ‘yes’ or steers them to a ‘no’ is invaluable. This webinar is an in-depth exploration of these driving forces for entrepreneurs and marketers, illuminated by the patented Conversion Sequence heuristic.
This webinar will delve into the essence of customer (really, all human) decision-making, unearthing the complexities and nuances that define the pathway to conversion. Our focus will pivot around the Conversion Sequence heuristic, a methodically developed tool that encapsulates over two decades of research and experimentation in understanding customer psychology and online marketing effectiveness.
Entrepreneurs and marketers will gain insight into each of the six critical factors identified as instrumental in influencing customer decisions. More than just identifying these factors, we will explore how they interact in complex ways to either propel potential customers towards a favorable decision or hinder their pathway to conversion.
The session is designed not just to impart knowledge but to equip participants with the practical tools and strategic foresight needed to apply this understanding to their sales and marketing efforts. By integrating these insights, attendees will be better positioned to craft strategies that resonate with their target audience, enhance customer engagement, and significantly improve conversion rates.
Whether you are a seasoned marketing professional looking to refine your approach or a newcomer eager to lay a solid foundation for your marketing initiatives, this webinar promises to be a light on your path. Join us to transform your sales and marketing strategies into a robust mechanism that consistently drives customers to say ‘yes.’

SCORE: Easy Canva Content Creation - Overview
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM SCORE: Easy Canva Content Creation - Overview In today’s visual world, content is king. While there are floods of AI resources most are quite obviously AI and have been likened to the digital version of carrying a clearly knock-off designer handbag under the guise of quality. It not only is quite obvious, but it can cheapen your brand, and tell people that you lack funds and resources for even the most basic and cost-effective graphic design software.
One of the most easy-to-use and versatile software is Canva – an online digital design, animation, and editing software which can be used to create everything from Social Media posts, to resumes, to posters, to postcards, to marketing materials, to pitch decks, to invoices and price quotes. The software is free to use, with a paid pro upgrade available for $120/year (or $15/month).
With thousands of font options, graphics, stock photos, video elements, animation styles, and templates to chose from, diving in can seem daunting at first. Once familiar with the platform, the possibilities are endless!
This webinar will break down some of the basics for using the platform to come up with your own unique digital designs to tell the story of your brand without looking like a cheap AI bot, or digital copy-cat.
All you need to create impactful content is internet access! The rest, well the rest will be covered in this webinar! To register, follow this link >> https://score.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_RHfuLM2xQZqGkjU1nPYQjw#/registration
