WorkSmart Entrepreneur Meet-Up
You don't have to explain what it's like to run a business to the people in this room, they already know. The WorkSmart Entrepreneur Meet-Up brings together people who get what it’s like to build something from scratch - storefront owners, creatives, service providers, and solopreneurs for an evening of connection. Leave your business cards at home, this is a space for real conversations, not networky sales pitches.
Funding Your Glens Falls Startup: What the City Offers
If you’re building a business in Glens Falls, this is your chance to learn exactly what funding the City offers, how to qualify, and what to have ready before you apply.
We're sitting down with Glens Falls' Director of Economic Development, Jeff Flagg, for an honest, practical conversation about the local funding programs and financial tools available to entrepreneurs right here in our community.
Whether you're still in the idea phase or just starting to gain traction, this is the kind of inside knowledge that can save you time, money, and a lot of guesswork.
You'll walk away knowing:
What local funding programs exist and who qualifies
How to position yourself to actually access them
What to have ready before you apply
What's coming down the pipeline you should know about now
Seats are limited — this is a small, conversational setting so come ready with your questions.
ABOUT JEFF:
Jeff Flagg serves as the Director of Economic Development for Glens Falls, where he leads efforts to strengthen the local business ecosystem, attract investment, and connect entrepreneurs with the tools and funding they need to grow.
Small Biz Money Lab
Every thriving business is built on a clear understanding of its finances, and yet, for many business owners, that's the part they feel least confident about, and are most likely to sidestep.
If that sounds familiar, you're in good company. WorkSmart’s Small Biz Money Lab offers a relaxed, supportive environment where you can ask questions, get clarity without judgment, and make real progress on the financial side of your business.
Bring your laptop, your questions, and whatever's been sitting on the to-do list. This is dedicated time to actually sit down and work on it.
How to Nail Your Elevator Pitch
Do you ever find yourself fumbling for the right words when someone asks about your business?
Pinpointing exactly what to say can be tough, but you can’t afford to miss your opportunity to make a memorable impression and ensure potential customers know what you offer!
In this workshop, we’ll help you craft your pitch with time to workshop your ideas, refining them to clearly communicate your message with confidence and impact.
A Plot of Gold - No Luck Needed A Collaborative Screenwriting Workshop
Picture this: You have the perfect idea, or so you think. You sit down to write, and the only thing you can think of is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Minutes, maybe hours later, your cursor is still blinking, and you've written nothing…
Screenwriting isn't about luck. It's about the hard work before you find your lucky clover (that perfect script). It's about collaboration and accountability. This workshop is here to fix all of that. With two breakout sessions in small groups, take your idea at any stage, get feedback, workshop ideas or areas you're stuck, and start writing.
Connect & Create WorkSprint
We all know the feeling: another day spent working in your business—answering emails, handling the urgent, putting out fires—while the important work that actually moves your business forward stays on the back burner. You have good intentions. You know what needs attention. But somehow, the day slips away.
Our Community WorkSprint creates the space you need to finally make progress on what matters most.
