Are You falling
Victim to any of these
Business
Plan Myths? |
| |
All
business plans are in writing
Business
plans must be long to be good
Their
primary purpose is to obtain financing
You
can and should do the business plan all by yourself
It
takes six months, a significant amount of the
owners and key staff members time and expensive
consultants
If
completed the business plan will sit unused on
a book shelf
My
business is too small; business plans are for
big businesses
I know where I’m taking my business, I do
not need a written business plan
I can just pay to have a consultant write it for
me and that will be good enough |
|
| The single
most important reason for a business plan
is to clarify your thinking regardless of the size of
your company. |
| As a business you need a way to test your ideas
without having to put your cash or business at risk
– the one page business plan gives you this |

Architects
visualize the details of a new building and produce
a simple sketch to see how it might look.
Songwriters
mentally hear a new melody and then test it out
on a piano or guitar to see how it will sound
Movie
producers imagine the setting of their next picture
and produce storyboards to help them produce a
more complete image of their story |

a stockbroker to get wrapped up in the market
and lose the perspective that you are in business
for yourself. In order to be successful for the
long run, one must have a plan and this system
is a great tool... it really helped me pull together
my business plan quickly."

This is the one time
when thinking "inside the box" is a
good thing! When it comes to a business plan,
you can lose your mind writing page after page
after page after page of endless nonsense. Having
the directive to focus and get it all on one page
when armed with successful instructions is priceless.
