You are expected to attend all four sessions. As a participant in the class\, you will receive a workbook that contains worksheets to help you gather and organize the information you will need to properly set up your store and create an effective marketing strategy. You will also receive access to a recording walking you step-by-step through the technical aspects of opening an e-commerce account on Etsy. \n  \n**This event series requires registration with the Nevada SBDC and an application for the IDRS Acorn Project.
