There are 28 million (28,000,000) small businesses in the US with over 500,000 new ones starting each year. According to the United States Small Business Administration (SBA), the primary concern/constraint reported by small business owners is inadequate capital to start and grow their business.
Innovative Capital Strategies, Inc. (ICS) has been retained by a 501(c)(3) non-profit that is a member of the Money Smart Alliance developed by the SBA and the FDIC to develop a national network of Branch Offices allowing Branch Managers to monetize the opportunity of helping 100+ clients per month (earning $5,000+ per client).
This is a very credible model. We are BBB accredited and a chamber member. At the core, this is a privatized model of the Small Business Development Centers (funded by the SBA) which allows you, as the Branch Manager, to monetize the valuable and important service.
PROCESS TO BECOME A BRANCH MANAGER
There are three simple steps to be considered for the Branch Manager role:
- Identify four zip codes. Each Branch has exclusivity for four zip codes whereby no one else can teach our curriculum or develop Affinity/Host relationships with churches, chambers, business organizations/associations, etc. while having the flexibility to help clients nationally.
- Submit a $2,500 deposit. The deposit to hold the Branch Office is refunded once the Branch Office License Agreement is funded. Additionally, ICS will fund the Branch Office $25,000 of working capital to cover initial salary, rent, etc.
- Attend training. Branch Managers receive free training. We can finance the cost of travel to our corporate office.
