Get a business plan! Save time, money and effort

The greatest time saver, money maker and effort reducer in any business is a business plan.

Let me say that again.

“The greatest time saver, money maker and effort reducer in any business is a business plan.”

Huh you might say, I don't need a plan, I know what we’re doing…..

If you want your business to succeed and bring you the riches you want, then you need a plan. And the longer you procrastinate, the longer it will take to achieve your dreams, if ever….

I sense you still don’t believe….

Okay, let me answer all your objections and see if I can change your mind…….

It's too difficult....

Okay if you are raising finance or selling equity then you’ll be writing a very detailed plan. But you just need 3 Pieces of Paper with few words and numbers for your plan.

I don't need one....

Perhaps not but we know that 4 out 5 businesses fail within the first 5 years and of those only a third had a plan. Do you want to take that risk?

It's all in my head I know what needs to be done...

Yes, you do but do you team know exactly what the plans are when they’re stuck in your head? They’re not real until you write them down then they can be followed by your team.

Actually I don't know how to do a business plan...

I don't need to raise money....
