How to Write an Effective Business Plan 

It was a dark and stormy night

A business plan is essentially a roadmap for business success.  It outlines the direction and actions you plan to pursue to grow your business over a period of 3 to 5 years. A successful plan is not prepared just once, but is revised to reflect ongoing changes in the environment and business conditions. A well-written plan will be the foundation for all of your key business decisions. 

During this workshop we will review the elements of an effective plan and then use a case study to demonstrate how the plan can be used to make marketing, manufacturing, financial and other important decisions.
