Since I started my business full-time in 2008, achieving a lifelong dream, I’ve had numerous people, most of whom are friends and family, ask me what it takes to become an entrepreneur.
Helping others start the adventure of entrepreneurship is a passion of mine, so I’ve teamed with a couple of veteran entrepreneurs to do the Pre-Entrepreneurship Bootcamp: What You Need to Know and Do Before Starting a Business on Saturday, Dec. 17, 2011 from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. in Oklahoma City at our nonprofit foundation, The Div.
This event is designed for aspiring or budding entrepreneurs – those who have an idea, itch or passion to run your own business, but need some direction and help getting started.
We want to provide basic training where entrepreneurs find answers, tools and help to start and grow great businesses that change the world.
WHO’S PRESENTING
Here are the people who will be sharing their experience and expertise in entrepreneurship for this event:
* Michael S. Smith — ran Gemini Industries in El Reno for a number of years and took it from $8 million to $35 million in sales before eventually selling the company. He now leads Oxygen for Organizations, mentoring entrepreneurs.
* Christian Brim – is a CPA who founded and runs Core Group, an accounting and financial services firm with locations throughout Oklahoma, and a member of Entrepreneurship Organization.
* Cory Miller – that’s me. I co-founded iThemes in 2008 and since starting our business in my home we now have 23+ team members scattered throughout the world, three primary brands (and more coming), an office in Edmond, Oklahoma, and this summer started The Div, our nonprofit tech foundation where the bootcamp will be held.
* We also have a couple of local attorneys who are going to be on hand to present and be available during the event for those who need direction on how to get legal help for your business.
REGISTRATION
I believe you’ve got to have a deep level of commitment, drive and passion to be an entrepreneur, so we’re asking for a donation of $50 per registrant for this special bootcamp, with all proceeds going to support The Div and our work through this nonprofit foundation, including lunch for the day.
We are also offering an online version of the bootcamp via webinar for those not in Oklahoma. The donation for this will be $40 a person.
If you have any questions about the bootcamp, please contact The Div through our contact form.

By · CommentsOver at StartupSofa, my new project for aspiring entrepreneurs, I’ve got a couple of new things going …
I just posted an article asking key questions for those interested in starting new businesses … it’s called Is Entrepreneurship Right For You. It’s based on the first webinar I did last week on the same subject.
And I’m also presenting another new webinar this week that’s a followup to that post called Discovering the Right Startup Idea to Chase.
Be sure to sign up for the email newsletter and start talking on the community forum over at StartupSofa.
We’re very excited as our blockbuster theme — iThemes Builder — turns one-year-old this month. That’s right, last December we launched Builder to much buzz in our community and in WordPress.
To celebrate we’re doing a couple of things ….

- Birthday Bash — we’re celebrating Builder’s birthday in style on Tuesday, Dec. 14 at 11 a.m. Central Time on iThemesTV … you’ll want to tune in as we giveaway some shirts and other goodies. We’re also releasing another child theme that day so you won’t want to miss the show! http://iThemes.tv
Look for some videos soon in this post as well as an announcement about the blowout sale next week.
In the meantime, we would love to know how iThemes Builder has helped you build great WP websites quickly.
