KINGSPORT, Tenn. - May 1, 2013 - PRLog -- KINGSPORT, Tenn. – The Kingsport Office of Small Business Development & Entrepreneurship (KOSBE) today announced the small business training event Buying (& Selling) An Existing Business coming up on Tuesday, May 14, 2013 at 10:00am to 12:00pm at the Kingsport Chamber of Commerce.

Topics will include but are not limited to: franchise opportunities, determining the value of a business, due diligence and exit strategy planning.

Speakers will be Jerry Bird of FRAN-NET out of Chattanooga, Travis McMurray, CPA with Blackburn, Childers & Steagall, and Aundrea Wilcox, executive director of KOSBE.

“Buying an existing business can be very appealing as the new owner instantly gains a name, employees, vendors, customers and income,” said Aundrea Wilcox. “But buying an existing business requires time, research and careful planning, and capital – even with professional advisors. This class will give potential business buyers (and sellers) a strong first step in the right direction.”

Cost of the event is free, but pre-registration is required. Register by clicking here. (https://www.tsbdc.org/workshop.aspx?ekey=10320130) Or call 423-392-8801.
