COLUMBUS, Ind. - The Columbus Area Chamber of Commerce presents the first session of its "Taking Care of Business" workshop series next month.
The seminars are designed for business owners who have been operating for 1–5 years and are ready to strengthen their foundation and grow with confidence.
The half-day, in-person workshops are built for action, not lectures. Each session provides participants with real tools, guided work time, and practical takeaways they can immediately implement into their businesses.
The series is intentionally progressive, with each workshop building on the one before it so attendees gain clarity, structure, and momentum throughout the year.
Space is limited to 20 participants to ensure an interactive, focused, and personalized experience. The first session in the four-part workshop series will take place on Friday, April 17, from 8:30 a.m. to noon. The others are in July and September.
