Why do a Business Plan? Every business can benefit from the preparation of a carefully written business plan. A business plan allows you to develop goals and strategies for your business.
Should I create my own Business Plan? Yes. In doing the planning yourself, you will gain a much better understanding of the content and this will allow you to refer back to you plan with accuracy and efficiency whenever necessary. If you really must have help to develop your business plan, make sure that the assistance is nothing more than constructive guidance. Never ask somebody else to write a business plan for you - After all, no one knows your business like you do. If required, The Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at the Innovation Center in Norton will also offer their personal support and guidance to you at no cost.
