Understanding Business Sales Tax (PST, GST) Rules and Obligations Online Workshop

This workshop focuses on sales taxes for businesses in Saskatchewan. The main topics covered will include: how and when to register for PST and GST tax accounts, taxable and exempt sales, charging, collecting, and remitting sales tax, self-assessing, and claiming sales tax credits. The workshop will give a broad overview of sales tax to ensure business owners know what to do, and what not to do when managing sales tax in their business.
Online Event: Friday Oct 16, 12-1 pm
The Marketing Mastermind- In Person- Regina
The Marketing Mastermind is not another workshop where you sit through a presentation and leave wondering how to apply it to your business. This is an interactive, collaborative day built around the real businesses—and real marketing challenges—in the room.
Each featured business will receive 20–30 minutes of focused attention from our team of five marketing experts, with experience in:
• Marketing strategy
• Brand and messaging
• Visual identity and design
• Social media and content
• Digital marketing and websites
You’ll bring one specific marketing challenge to the table. Our experts will ask questions, identify opportunities and help you determine practical next steps.
The rest of the room will also be invited into the conversation. Your fellow entrepreneurs bring valuable business experience, fresh perspectives and something especially useful: many may think like, or even represent, your ideal customers.
WHAT COULD WE WORK THROUGH?
Your challenge might be:
• Your marketing feels scattered and you don’t know where to focus.
• Your brand no longer reflects the quality of your business.
• You’re struggling to explain what makes you different.
• Your social media lacks direction or isn’t creating results.
• Your website isn’t connecting with or converting customers.
• You want to reach more of the right people.
• You have limited time and budget and need to know what to prioritize.
• You’re launching something new and need a clear way to market it.
WHY ATTEND?
Even when your business isn’t in the spotlight, you’ll learn from every conversation. Many of the challenges facing other entrepreneurs will feel familiar—and the ideas generated for one business may spark the breakthrough your own business needs.
You’ll leave with fresh perspectives, practical ideas and a clearer understanding of what to do next.
Come ready to bring a challenge, share your perspective and help build better solutions together.

At Capacity: Rethinking Overwhelm, Boundaries & Sustainable Success
Virtual Event
Event Overview
Running a business often means balancing competing demands from work, family, community, and everyday life. This interactive and reflective workshop invites participants to explore the difference between simply being busy and truly being at capacity.
Together, we’ll discuss the invisible labour that contributes to overwhelm, how to set healthy boundaries without guilt, and practical ways to recognize and prevent burnout before it takes hold. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on what is actually theirs to carry, how to manage competing responsibilities, and how to build realistic rhythms that support both personal well-being and business success.
Through conversation, self-reflection, and practical strategies, we’ll explore how rest, community, support, and reciprocity can help create a more sustainable approach to entrepreneurship. Rather than focusing on productivity alone, this session will challenge the idea that success requires constant sacrifice and offer a more balanced vision of what it means to thrive in business and life.
Participants will leave with:
- A better understanding of their capacity and stressors
- Practical tools for setting boundaries and managing overwhelm
- Strategies to prevent burnout and protect their energy
- A renewed focus on building a business that aligns with their values and priorities
- Ideas for creating sustainable routines, support systems, and success on their own terms
Ideal for entrepreneurs, business owners, and aspiring entrepreneurs looking to build success without sacrificing their well-being.
