Advanced Workshops

Through our network of volunteers we regularly offer Advanced Workshops. Our volunteer instructors teach workshops throughout the month on a variety of topics. Titles include: Business Planning 101, Basic Computer Training, You Can Sell Anything!, Bring Your Business Online, Hands-on Financial Worksheets, Creative Marketing, Legal Issues, and more. See the calendar , for upcoming workshops.

Access to Markets

One of the most challenging aspects of being a small business owner in the U.S. is connecting with the marketplace. Competition is fierce and getting your product or service in front of customers can be very expensive. Washington CASH organizes a minimum of three Business Showcase Events per year. These venues allow our members to sell their products or services to the general public. The events happen in February (on Valentines Day), in May (during our big fundraising event), and in December (our holiday bizarre). We also look for any opportunity to get our members involved in other marketing opportunities, such as local conferences, festivals and fairs.
