SUMMARY:Women Unlimited Presents: Understanding Entrepreneur's Insurance Benefits
DESCRIPTION:Join us in person for class four of Women Unlimited’s Business Support Series & learn how to leverage insurance benefits as an entrepreneur. Building a business is about more than increasing revenue. It’s also about protecting what you’re building\, the people who depend on you\, and your future. Join Women Unlimited for Class Four of The Business Support Series with Kayla Holloway\, a hands-on\, workbook-based workshop designed to help entrepreneurs take a closer look at the protection they currently have—and identify areas that may need attention. Instead of simply listening to a presentation\, you’ll work through your own personalized protection checklist\, auditing key areas of your personal and business life and identifying questions\, gaps\, and next steps to investigate. You’ll build your own Entrepreneur’s Insurance & Protection Checklist during the workshop\, giving you a clearer picture of what you already have in place and what you may need to investigate further. This session is designed to help you ask better questions\, understand the different areas that can affect your financial and business security\, and become more intentional about protecting what you’re working to build. Don’t wait until something happens to find out where the gaps are. Plan today\, protect what you’ve built\, and prepare for what comes next. \nSource and tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/women-unlimited-presents-understanding-entrepreneurs-insurance-benefits-tickets-2000778978785

SUMMARY:AI Workflow Reset: Small Business Operations Lab
DESCRIPTION:A hands-on lab to simplify your small business workflows with AI—meet in person\, swap ideas\, and get things done. Better Workflows Begin With Clearer Decisions – Not More Tools. Small businesses manage countless recurring activities\, from customer communication and document preparation to operational reporting and team coordination.

AI Workflow Reset: Small Business Operations Lab is a small-format\, self-guided workshop designed for Austin business owners\, founders\, consultants\, and operations professionals who want to examine practical ways to improve everyday workflows. Rather than attending another AI lecture or watching a software demonstration\, participants explore fictional business scenarios\, complete structured decision exercises\, and compare approaches with fellow professionals. The workshop follows four practical stages: FIND → COMPARE → CHECK → PLAN No coding knowledge\, AI subscription\, or live software demonstration is required. \nSource and tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ai-workflow-reset-small-business-operations-lab-tickets-2003951440704
