How To Write Your Business Plan
KickStart Your Business Into High Gear With SMALL BUSINESS KICKSTARTER
A business plan is a roadmap for your business success. This is a living document (meaning it can be changed) and generally projects 3-5 years ahead.
Your business plan outlines the route your company intends to take to grow revenues over the course of this period.
If you plan on applying for a loan through your bank, you will most certainly need a business plan.
There is also a commonly overlooked bit of protection it offers. Should your small home business ever be audited by the IRS and they try to assert that your business is just a hobby and not an actual business, your plan will help prove your business intent.
