The Foundations Program at Mountain Bizworks is one of the greatest investments a small business owner or entrepreneur can make in Asheville and throughout Western North Carolina. In 2003 I (Sarah Benoit, Internet Marketing Specialist and Blogger) took this course in order to open my first business. 6 years later when I decided to open another business I returned to Mountain Bizworks for valuable guidance and support.

If you are considering creating your own company or you are a business owner looking to expand, grow or evolve then the Foundations program is a wonderful place to begin our journey.
