Business Plan
Hello. I am in desperate need of a business plan. I have a out of my home company. I am looking into opening a store front. I will need financial backing. My credit is not so great, so I am looking for investors. I have a great product, but I know that I will need a solid business plan if I intend on getting the interest of any financial support. Can someone give me any suggestions on a business plan and, or financial backing?
Thank you in advance.
D.

Try going to the Small Business Association website (sba.org) or just Google SBA. On the website you should be able to find assistance on how to come up with a sound business plan. There may be something on there as well to help you with getting investors. It is worth a try. Good Luck!!

D.,
Suggest that you go to the Small Business Administration office - they programs and classes and matierals ... in fact, there is so much there, you have to stay focused on what you want. There is an office at Greenspoint and one in the woodlands.
Good luck!

If you look online, there are business plans available at the Small Business Administration website http://www.sba.gov/services/financialassistance/index.html , and there's also a group of folks called SCORE - usually business people who've retired and want to help new business owners.

As well as the first response you can also goggle Business Plan and there are several online sites that you can refer to. The County Extension Service for our area should also offer a 12 week course on preparing a business plan. Good luck!
