Description
Small businesses are the backbone of America.
Thinking about striking out on your own? You need an effective and concise business plan that will put you on the road to success.
Small business specialist Judith Miles of Chrysalis Consulting offers a small business assessment and planning, culminating in a practical business plan for use by the small, owner-operated business.
The business plan would be delivered in both bound and electronic formats and can be used for internal planning purposes or to supply needed information for consideration by a financial institution as part of a loan application to purchase assets or expand operations.
The planning sessions includes four hours of preparation and production of the plan:
- An initial evaluation and assessment;
- Drafting a business plan outline, including: customer/client identification, buying patterns of ideal market, primary market research, SWOT analysis, outline of traditional/non-traditional marketing, financial options, legal analysis;
- Delivering and explaining the plan to the successful bidder.
Alternatively, the successful bidder may substitute a feasibility analysis of a potential opportunity. The plan would be suitable for a sole proprietorship or a small business with a local focus in manufacturing, service or retail.
Timeframe for consultation: Services to be rendered and completed by January 31, 2009.
Judith Miles, an attorney and small business consultant, and a FutureHeights trustee, is a Cleveland Heights resident.
