Need a business plan on demand? Getting a plan together in a tight timeframe takes a tough task and makes it harder. But don't despair; there is help to be had out there. Resources abound online, where business planning blogs, idea forums, templates, and review sites can be accessed free of charge. The domain businessplan.com even offers a free plan review so you can quickly learn what shortcomings your existing plan has, along with how to fix them. Remember these points:
• Don't ever follow a template too closely -- some of the worst mistakes can arise here
• You can use competitors' sites, on occasion, to pinpoint costs
• Make sure you describe how your company is different from what's out there
• You'll need a marketing strategy developed that explains how you connect with consumers
to get a plan done fast, you could turn to software programs like Business Plan Pro, or set up a meeting with SCORE or your SBA office to get yourself squared away on the task. But the onus is still on you to do all the heavy lifting. Want to outsource the whole headache? MasterPlans is the industry's leading business plan writing firm.
