Building a Business Plan for a Successful Business 

The Business Plan is the manual that guides the company’s daily operation and activity towards the goals and objectives that have been established.  The plan answers the – who, what, when, where, how and whys of your company.  Who are you?  What are you going to do?  Where are you going to do it? When are you going to do it?  How are you going to be successful?  Why does this make good business sense?  You will learn what data is required to write your plan, review the techniques used to acquire it, and how to use this data to establish realistic goals and objectives.  Instructional handouts, sample plans, and business development material will be distributed to all seminar participants.

  • Format and content of the business plan acceptable to the SBA and local banks
  • Cash Flow Management

Using the Internet in Your Business 

So, everyone else has a website, why don’t you?  This seminar will review the various roles that a website can support in enhancing your business.  These range from serving simply as a quickly and widely accessible marketing brochure, to providing more mechanisms allowing customers to communicate their needs easily and effectively, to becoming your very inexpensive, primary “storefront”.  We will demystify much of the gobbledygook and walk you through an eight-step process of key activities needed to allow you to quickly leverage this technology in almost any business.
