The Local Enterprise Office, North Tipperary Leader Partnership and South Tipperary Development Company have agreed a new approach to support unemployed individuals contemplating starting their own business. The new arrangements will help to streamline supports and ensure that the information and business needs of the Promoter are met in a collaborative and supportive way.

Kickstart workshops cover the basics of starting your own business eg; business structures, self assessment/ taxation & vat, market research, sales & marketing, finance, business plan and regulatory environment.  The workshops are free of charge but pre-registration with LEO is a requirement.

1.The LEO will organise and fund half day “Kickstart” workshops in Clonmel and in Nenagh. The workshop will cover the basics of starting your own business e.g.; business structures, self assessment/ taxation & vat, market research, sales & marketing, finance, business plan and regulatory environment.

2.“Kickstart” participants will be provided with a SYOB Guide, 10 steps to Starting Your Own Business, Business Plan, Marketing Plan and Cash Flow Projections templates, Schedule of key contacts in local agencies etc, information leaflets (LEO, Leader, MFI, DSP, Revenue etc.).

3. At the end of the workshop, participants will be screened and referred on to SICAP where they will register with NTLP or STDC as appropriate and receive 3/4 individual Mentor sessions. Simultaneously, the Promoter may avail of a training place free of charge (if certified by DSP) on any LEO business skills training course e.g. 10 week SYOB or 1 day SYOB Boot Camp to develop a business plan.

4.Where the Promoter proposes to set up a LEO qualifying enterprise, the LEO Staff will cater for the development and training needs of the participant and liaise with DSP if necessary to avoid duplication of effort thus safeguarding resources.

5. Participants will be provided with a Certificate of Attendance after “Kickstart” which they can present to DSP, Leader Companies, financial institutions, MFI etc. in support of their application for support or loan finance.
