SUMMARY:How to Write a Business Plan
DESCRIPTION:If you are in business or planning to start a business, you absolutely need a plan. You would not embark on a long road trip with your family with no travel plan or budget. The business plan maps out the path and budget for your business. The degree of detail and the length of the business plan varies depending on how fast you want to grow and your source of funding. Banks, investors, and potential partners will expect to see a business plan. But the most important audience for your business plan is you. It can be the living document and compass that keeps your business on track and moving in the fast lane toward your goals.\nIn this session, you will learn: \n• The major sections of the business plan and why you need each one.\n• How to know if you need a 1-page or a 40-page document.\n• The three major ways to get a business plan written.\n• How to use the business plan to increase the likelihood of business success.\nABOUT THE FACILITATOR:\nKatie Gailes is a proud native North Carolinian who has devoted most of her professional life to helping small business owners and entrepreneurs.
