Small Business Roadmap | Searcy County Workshop
Got a business idea but not sure where to start? Join Startup Junkie and the Searcy County Chamber of Commerce for Small Business Roadmap — a free, hands-on workshop in Marshall designed for aspiring entrepreneurs and existing small business owners alike.
In about an hour, we'll walk through two of the most useful tools for getting a new venture off the ground:
The Lean Canvas — a one-page way to capture your entire business model, so you can see the whole picture at a glance instead of writing a 30-page plan.
Idea validation — simple, low-cost ways to test demand and talk to real customers before you invest serious time or money.
You'll leave with a working draft of your own Lean Canvas and a clear set of next steps to pressure-test your idea in the real world.
Who should come:
Anyone with a business idea they want to take seriously
Current small business owners looking to refine or expand
Side-hustlers, makers, and first-time founders in Searcy County and the surrounding area
No experience required — just bring your idea and a willingness to dig in. Light materials provided.
This workshop is free and open to the community. Space is limited, so please register in advance.
