Guided Business Plan Launches Entre Series: Network, Plan & Take Action in Response to New Federal Legislation to Fund Small Businesses

Entrepreneurs will congregate on October 19, 2010 at the Doubletree Hotel in Orange, CA to strategize and prepare their business to take advantage of the Small Business Jobs Act recently passed by the Obama administration. Entrepreneur-education firm Guided Business Plan is sponsoring Entre Series to encourage the entrepreneurial community to create action plans in the areas of product launch, corporate procurement and export financing.

Hollywood, CA, October 14, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Entrepreneur-education firm Guided Business Plan is sponsoring a brand new program, Entre Series, a half-day mini-boot camp to encourage the entrepreneurial community to create action plans in the areas of product launch, corporate procurement and export financing. Attendees will participate in up to six 30-minute seminars filled with resources to help propel their company forward. With the national spotlight turning to small business to bail out the economy, the Entre Series is a needed venue to inspire existing business owners to “network, plan and take action.” The Entre Series is an intimate, no-frills “unconference” that focuses on the attendees’ immediate business development needs.

Opening the program is Melanie Rae, author of the Guided Business Plan™, a book to simplify the process of creating business plans. She will demonstrate how her Five Basics can be utilized to develop any strategic plan. James Santino of the renowned Largest Mixer® Events will discuss marketing strategies to attract a crowd to an event. Irving Katz, Family Business Coach and author of Family Business Secrets: How to Keep Your Business Thriving from Generation to Generation, will facilitate transitional pre-planning whether you intend to exit within five years or fifty. Launching a new product is never easy, however, since the age of 18 president of Hex Corp, Michael Hex, has introduced numerous products to the marketplace. Michael will present a checklist to streamline the process of transitioning your concept to prototype to shelf space. Jeff Uter, the former Project Manager who oversaw the development of Disney’s MGM Studios, will inform the audience on how to segment and target the corporate buyer. As the Founder and President of Premier Alliance LLC, Jeff consults national retail franchisees on expansion and growth issues. Anchoring the program is Akary Busto, Assistant Vice President of HSBC Bank. She is an export financing guru who will clarify current federal legislation to encourage entrepreneurs to expand their export business.

Speaker Highlight:
Jeff Uter is a seasoned Project Executive and Builder who has managed over $2 billion of capital spending in a 30 year career. Jeff is Founder and CEO of Premier Management Alliance, LLC which is in its twelfth year. Jeff spent the first half of his career buying contracts, products and services for the Veterans Administration, Walt Disney Imagineering and Taco Bell Corp. The second half has been spent on selling services to Fortune 500 retail and restaurant chains nationwide such as Wal-Mart, Home Depot, Mars Retail, Darden Restaurants, Planet Hollywood, just to name a few. Jeff will bring a unique perspective between government and corporate procurement, selling from Executive to staff level.
