What Makes Up a Business Plan?
The thought of creating a business plan strikes fear into the hearts of small business owners everywhere. I get it—it’s hard to know where to start, what to include, how long it should be…
But creating a business plan doesn’t have to be scary or overwhelming.
In this Your Business Edge – AMPLiFY! Small Business Marketing Strategies episode, me and my guest Pamela Chatry cover the important components that go into a business plan. You might remember Pamela Chatry—she’s a Strategic Business Advisor and Planner who’s been a guest on the show before. (I share some of her resources below).
Watch to learn:
- Four key areas that lay the foundation for the benchmark of your business
- How to produce and get your vision to market
- The financial component that might make you cringe (but must be done)
- What your sales and marketing should look like
- Determining a criteria for hiring/outsourcing
- A simplified planning process to remove fear around finances
