A pro and con of running your own business is that all tasks fall on you. If your background is area specific, this is an excellent way to expand your knowledge and to solidify a new approach. You'll score advice, attend seminars, and network with others in the same business boat. Discuss problems, connect to other entrepreneurs, and stay in the loop with the members-only newsletter. You'll also be privy to seminars and workshops. And if you're unable to be present for seminars, each one is recorded and available in the members area of the website in video and MP3 format.
