Publisher's summary

Whenever the words business plan are mentioned most people freeze! What follows are the words I don't know how to write one.... This is why I have taken the lid off and written in plain English what needs to be considered and included in a business plan. This book has been written to help those who are writing plans for the first time or for those who write business plans infrequently. (Even seasoned business plan writers will learn one or two things, I promise!) I have included two different types of business plan templates. The first one is for those who feel they need a very "comprehensive business plan" and the second template is what I have called a "PowerPoint template" that can assist you in writing a business plan in just a few hours. Whichever one you choose to use, I want you to know that the information contained in this book has been used to help many start-up and growing businesses and I am confident will be of tremendous value to you.

Must Read!

Such a great book! I didn't know how to write business plans and didn't even know where to start. This book demystifies the process for you. The book also offers easy to follow guilds on how to write a business plan that will make a great impression. So many tips! I really enjoyed the chapter that gives you the PowerPoint temple, the author made it easy to understand so I can start my own now. I am really excited about putting my own business plan together after this book. Really helpful and highly recommended!

Good for business owners

This had a lot of good ideas and things to think about when you are a first time business owner. Or even if you’re not it opened up my mind to new ideas things to try with the ever-changing business world…it’s good to stay on top of these things. Definitely recommend even if you’re just wanting to brush up your skills and improve your business.

Very helpful audiobook

I loved this short audiobook and that author goes straight to the point without unnecessary introductions.
There is a lot of work to figure out how to write your business time for the first time and author did a great job by putting this guide together how you can write your plan in few hours using included business plan templates.
