From the Times-News:
When the economy plunged last year, throwing millions out of jobs, many decided to become entrepreneurs, launching their own businesses.
But good ideas and ambition aren’t enough to make a business successful. Financial and marketing skills, strategic planning and other business know-how are crucial.
That’s where the Entrepreneurial League System comes in.
ELS, created by New Jersey residents Thomas L. Lyons and Gregg A. Lichtenstein, teaches entrepreneurs how to grow their businesses, avoid making common mistakes, become aware of weak spots and find out how to strengthen them, and learn how to develop their businesses and set the goals.
An ELS round-table discussion is planned for 2-4 p.m. today at the Kovatch Training Facility, One Industrial Complex, Nesquehoning.
