Scholarships
available for
local businesses
Anyone running a busi­
ness these days knows how
hard it is to make the busi­
ness successful and profit­
able. Now there is some
help for local business peo­
ple who want to learn more
about how to make their
small business more suc­
cessful.
The Willow Creek Eco­
nomic Development Group
is teaming up with The
BMCC Small Business De­
velopment Center (SBDC)
and the Bank o f Eastern Or­
egon to offer financial help
for businesses who want to
enroll in a program to help
with problems like record
keeping, marketing and
personnel management.
SBDC offers the one
year program for $660, but
through a special arrange­
ment SBDC has reduced
the cost o f the program to
just $425 for the nine semi­
nars. Local businesses will
not have to pay the entire
cost however, because WC-
VEDG is offering small
business scholarships of
$150 and the Bank o f East­
ern Oregon is kicking in an­
other $ 150 to make the total
cost to the business person
just $125 for one year of
programs, including “the
need for good records”,
“requirements o f a good
system”, “methods of ac­
counting”, “how to analyze
your records” and “busi­
ness planning”.
Doug Lamberson is the
instructor for the course,
and he has a BA in business
administration and mas­
ter’s in economics. He has
owned two successful busi­
nesses and has eight years
experience working for the
Small Business Develop­
ment Center. Lamberson
has also taught a wide vari­
ety o f seminars.
The management pro­
gram is designed for es­
tablished businesses which
have been operating for
at least one year, and of­
fers
monthly
evening
workshops and individual
monthly on-site business
visits during the period of
October through June. Sev­
eral Heppner businesses
have already taken the pro­
gram and report good ben­
efit from it.
