Sponsorship Opportunities
Help Fuel Local Growth
The Ember Business Fundamentals Workshops serve established small business owners who are past the startup stage and ready to run with more structure, focus, and stronger decisions.
Ember is an in person workshop series.
- Sessions are led by topic experts and experienced, successful small business owners
- Content is practical and built for real day to day operations
- Wellness and focus are part of the work because better decisions require capacity, not just information
Who we serve
- Built for business owners three years or more in operation
- Priority enrollment for Warren based business owners
- Open to any business owner when space allows
- Not demographic focused
- Participants are selected based on readiness to participate and apply the work
What your sponsorship supports
- Instructor fees for topic experts and proven operators
- Space, materials, and on site logistics
- Guided work time that helps owners put tools into use during the series
- Follow up support that helps owners keep using the tools after the sessions
- Reduced cost barriers for Warren business owners
Why it matters
- Owners adopt new practices through repetition and support
- Sponsorship pays for the structure that drives adoption
Cohort sessions, guided work time, and follow up - This helps Warren business owners put core fundamentals into daily use inside their business
