Scoring Big with Business Plan Help Dwayne Armstrong
http://www.CanuckHomeBiz.comNew entrepreneurs often make the mistake of thinking that creating a business plan is not important. They don't know how to create a business plan and they don't know where to turn for help. Often they are concerned that competent help creating a business plan will be costly. So they do nothing about their business plan design. What this does is leave these entrepreneurs without structured goals or a clear business path to follow to reach their goals.
Creating a business plan may be time consuming, yes. But it beats the alternative, which is to fail at the business. If you were setting out on a long trip to a place you had never been before would you not consult a map, strategize where you would stop and when, where you would sleep each night on the road and your mode of transportation. A start up business owner who doesn't begin by creating a business plan is like a traveler who drives aimlessly, not knowing the route to his destination.
Professional help creating a business plan can be free. The U.S. Small Business Administration offers books, tapes, and personal guidance at its various small business development center locations. An entrepreneur can even find helpful advice and tips on creating a business plan on its Web site.
Another much-lauded organization that can help not only with creating a business plan but with just about every aspect of setting up and expanding a small business, is SCORE. This Service Corps of Retired Executives is made up of volunteers who have been where these beginning entrepreneurs have been and have succeeded. These folks used to be entrepreneurs themselves or business management professionals and they now offer their expertise in one on one face to face meetings, in group workshops or on the Internet.
When a new business owner needs help creating a business plan, designing marketing materials, deciding on a product or service, a business location, finding capital to get the business off the ground, to advertise for and hire the right people, to set up an accounting system, to pay taxes, and to expand operations, either of these fine organizations can help.
