WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

How to use your own creative process to craft a plan that works for you.!

Producing a written, traditional business plan can be a struggle, yet we all need to plan to achieve our goals. This workshop series is for all creative, right-brained thinkers and even those who hate to plan! Each workshop uses practical, visual tools to take you through the planning process, in bite-sized chunks. You’ll share ideas with fellow creatives and follow your own creative process to craft that works for you.

Thinking BIG

Workshop Two: Designing Your Business Model? – Business modelling using the ModFin system.

This event is free, but space is limited. You must be enrolled with The Big House and/or RCF-D. Space is limited, so make sure to book your ticket today to guarantee your place.

PLEASE NOTE: The Big House events are free to you, because they are funded – however there is a cost attached to them for us and we are a not-for-profit organisation. So, if you have registered to come, your place will have been paid for. Our events are very popular and we often have a waiting list. With this in mind, if for any reason you are unable to attend it is very important that you cancel your ticket on Eventbrite as soon as possible, to enable someone else to take your place.

If you have already accessed 12 or more hours of support you may be placed on a waiting list - your place is not guaranteed until you receive confirmation from RCF-D Team.
