Heartwood School: Business Practices for Timber Framers

We may know how to design and cut the ultimate timber frame, but do we know how to build our business for success? Join the Heartwood School for this seminar on developing business practices for your timber frame company. 

Instructors will answer your business questions through small groups and informal discussions. Topics will include: starting up a business (legal structure, insurance), marketing, sales, operations (employees, management), contracts and contract types, leadership, and estimating the cost and sale price of producing a timber frame.

The seminar will share resources like documents, systems, and procedures, and there will be plenty of time to discuss what is on your mind. Time will also be spent on exercises designed to get you thinking about what you really want your business to become, and then help you get there.
