A strong business starts with a clear foundation.

Join Change Labs for the first session in a loan-readiness workshop series led by Duane Humeyestewa. This introductory working session will help entrepreneurs understand the Business Model Canvas, a practical tool for organizing, testing, and strengthening a business idea.

This session is a great fit for anyone with a business idea, new entrepreneurs trying to organize their next steps, existing business owners who want to revisit their foundation, and Kinship or NSBCI borrowers or potential borrowers preparing for future growth or funding.

Together, we’ll focus on the first three building blocks of the Business Model Canvas:

• Customer Segments: Who your business serves

• Value Proposition: What value your business provides

• Channels: How customers find, access, and connect with your business

These concepts also help entrepreneurs prepare for future business planning and loan-readiness conversations.

Whether you are just getting started or want to strengthen the foundation of your business, this working session will help you take a clearer next step.
