February 8. The Small Business & Technology
Development Center at Henderson State University presents its highly acclaimed
First Steps FastTrac Series beginning February 8th and running twelve weeks at
the Hot Springs Chamber of Commerce. The total fee is $99 which includes
registration and all course materials. Government buyers are typically
reluctant to contract with start-ups because the company has little or no track
record on which to judge their capability. This course is highly recommended
for newer companies expanding into the government market, as well as for
start-up and pre-start-up entrepreneurs. For information and registration
before January 29th, call
