Business Plan?


Just curious if anyone would have a business plan they have created for themselves that they would be willing to share a look by me?! I'm too to come up with one on my own so any help I could get would be greatly appreciated!

Seriously, I haven't a clue where to start within the process...

Anybody tried a program off the shelf from the local office supplies-type store?

Help!

Heh heh heh ! That's nearly as clever as the saying "Plan to fail, fail to plan".

Re: Business Plan?


lol I have an awsome plan. I have been working every day on it for well over six months. I don't think I would have it though if I had the $$$ to do it on my own. Lenders want it though so gotta do it. Kinda glad I am now though. I think I will be off to a much better start because of it. Not just because of having the plan itself but more because of all that I have learned while putting it together....now I just started redoing it to enter it in a business plan competition. The plan can only be max 20 pages to enter and mine is well over double that so I have lots of work to do to shorten it up.
