Small Business Study Hall

Next event: Thursday, November 14th, 6pm to 8pm (Full 2024 schedule below.)

This Month -- Persistence: The Great Equalizer

Note: November’s meetup is on the second Thursday of this month — November 14th.

In November 2023, Dave found himself at a crossroads, realizing that change was essential for his happiness. At a Tony Robbins event, the “Dickens Process” opened his eyes to a powerful truth: he still had time to pursue his lifelong dream of being a TV actor.

Fast forward 11 months, and that dream became his reality. Join him for “Persistence: The Great Equalizer,” where he’ll share how that pivotal moment fueled his journey. Remember, massive action starts with just one step. That first step.

And that is true of any entrepreneur in their journey.

What we're about

✅ SBSH (Small Business Study Hall) is our monthly series for small businesses, start-ups, entrepreneurs and freelancers. Each month is a different topic or interactive theme. Each meetup also includes 30+ minutes of networking and meet and greet with like-minded entrepreneurs from Elgin and the northwest suburbs.

✅ We meet in the 3rd week of the month, on Thursdays.

✅ “Each one, reach one.” We also encourage you to invite a fellow entrepreneur!

✅ Although named “Entrepreneurs” meetup, this is a group for anybody looking for ideas, inspiration, mentors, or resources to assist you on your journey.
We welcome:
– Students and recent grads looking to make connections,
– Creatives needing help to market their skills,
– Corporate employees looking to build their leadership skills,
– Founders who need to improve their communication skills,
 but most importantly,
– Cool and interesting people who want to share ideas, collaborate, learn and grow together.
