ok, so my parents and my aunt own an EMS transportation company. basically, its a medican transportation company for the sick and elderly. they do hospital discharges, transportation to dialysis and oncology facilities, anywere patients have appointments. we have ambulances and emt's for basic life support. we also have minivans for patients who do not require ambulatory transportation, but have no other means of conveyance to their appointments. so basically, i want to help them run their company, but i dont know the first thing about running a business.
are there any special classes or courses that i should look at? should i go to a technical college? what programs should i take into consideration?
Business accounting courses would be invaluable I would think. There are medical billing courses offered by many community colleges as well. They would cover things like insurance, medicare, and medicaid.
you should check with the state to see if you need a CDL type driver's license. if you could get EMS training that would be good too. you should tell your parents that you want to learn the business and see if they will start teaching you. tell them you want to learn the business inside and out and ask where and when you can start.
Some of the ways you can advertise your business are:
1. Post an article about your business on related blogs and get free visitors and back links
2. Submitting to directories
3. Free classifieds
4. Forums
Send an email with more information about your business to e@culx.net for free help on finding new customers and increasing sales.
Why don't you ask your parents? The question I would ask is: If there's something that you really wish you had knowlege about, what would that be? Then look into pursuing that. It will "fill in a gap" that's missing in their business.
