Writing Your Business Plan!
Do you really need a business plan? Is it possible to start a business without a plan?
You can, but that’s doing things the hard way. A business plan is your roadmap to success. It is a way to test the feasibility of your idea before investing in it. A well-written business plan is also needed to obtain financing.
In this course, you will discover the basic components needed for a winning business plan. You will also have the opportunity to write the plan in class, using Microsoft Word. Please bring a flash drive to the class to back-up your work.
