(Homosassa, FL)- The Citrus County Business Resource Alliance Partners are presenting the workshop “Hire your first Employee” on Tuesday, May 15, 2012 from 5:30pm – 8:00pm at the College of Central Florida Learning Center.
This workshop is designed for self-employed entrepreneurs who are ready to hire their first employee.

The registration fee includes a book to be used in the workshop. To ensure delivery by the workshop date, pre-registration is highly recommended as soon as possible.
The featured presenter is Mike Orlito, Certified Business Analyst for the Small Business Development Center at UNF in Citrus County. The content for this workshop is pulled from Hire your first Employee, a book by small business expert Rhonda Abrams. Ms. Abrams has advised, mentored and consulted entrepreneurs and small business owners since 1986. An experienced entrepreneur herself, Rhonda has started three successful companies, including a small business consulting firm. Her experience gives her a strong real-life understanding of the challenges facing entrepreneurs. Currently, she is the founder and CEO of The Planning Shop, a company focused on providing entrepreneurs with high quality information and tools for developing successful business plans.
