Business Plan

I would like to know if there is someone who can help me make a detailed business plan for a online business. I would discuss the details of the site after I get some information and know that the party is serious about Helping me with a solid business plan.If someone is not able to actually do the business plan,can someone refer another from this site that can? I would like to know your costs,experience,some references,and the time it would take to complete the plan.Thanks

The best person to write your plan is you. You can always have it reviewed (edited) by another (professional writer if you wish) before presentation to investors/lenders.

There are a number of sites offering free advice (and even review) on what goes into the plan. You can contact SCORE for a plan review and consultation.

I also advice writing your business plan yourself. I can almost guarantee that you'll find that you will come up with a lot of interesting thoughts and ideas while you are in the process of writing the plan.

Business_123,

Would you provide the name of the company you are partnered with that is
assisting you with your business plan. I am in the same situation and would like
to bounce my plan to a professional for their comments and suggestions. Hope
to speak with you soon.

Thanks,

Hi,
My husband and I are wanting to start a business for the first time. We know of possible investors with whom we have spoken.

We are looking for an organization or group of retired businessman who help others with business plan and all involved for our dream to hopefully come to reality.

The best person to do your business plan is you and someone familiar with that industry. It is good to have a company like yours on paper where you can compare, get ideas from, and help you with new ideas.

I prepare business plans along with other things to help small business owners. I do it with you giving your ideas and insight. I also offer two revisions if after we prepare the original plan you decide that maybe you won't offer that service or maybe I need to add another employee.

I also can post it online with a website so that if you are in need of funding you can just give the loan officer the website and they can view it immediately.

Visit my website: www.claycombaccounting.com If you would like to talk further I can be reached at 502-939-4699.

I suggest you to put your plan on-line and develop it together with your coach.
By letting someone else to write it, you destroy the potential value of the business plan.

Business plans are important. Choose someone to write it that really knows your vision.

You should write the main outline for your Business Plan because it's your vision, as well as succinct bullet points under each one of the main areas. You need to ask yourself those tough questions, where do I see myself in a year, 2 years, 5 years? How much money do I need to do everything I need to do to achieve that vision. If I grow how will I manage that growth? This will turn the plan into a very detailed novel, and then you start to edit and cut and add.

The purpose of the exercise it to make you think everything through. Once you are sure you have a plan then it is always helpful to have someone else write it as the second opinion and questions will help to make sure you are on the right track.

Anitha Hariharanathan, that offer will certainly go a long way. With your complimentary service, Jeff should use any money saved to have someone product a ppt or slide show presentation.

Hi,

As a business entrepreneur particularly when starting a new venture you need to adjust ways of working and maintain schedules that work best for you. To be successful in business requires a high level of drive and commitment. Effective time management helps you accomplish your important goals and helping you to reliaze what is truly important for your business.

Thanks
