A Coffs Harbour counsellor has launched her own venture for single mothers with the help of a TAFE NSW online training program.
Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh said the Women in Business program provides female entrepreneurs on the Coffs Coast with a suite of practical resources for women running small businesses, micro businesses or start-up operations.
“Female business leaders are increasingly turning to the fee-free TAFE NSW Women in Business program to build the skills they need to get their business off the ground,” Mr Singh said.
Coffs Harbour’s Elle Sitek decided to launch her own venture using evidence-based counselling therapy techniques.
The TAFE NSW Women in Business program helped Elle learn about marketing techniques and business structure to help her launch Single Mama Way.
“I learned about business structure, business planning and online safety and security,” Elle said.
“The modules on setting up your business online and how to build a professional brand were also extremely helpful.
“I have qualifications in nursing and counselling, but I needed help planning and launching my business.
“The program has given me strategies for my business that I can now implement to grow for the future.”
