A business plan is not simply a document you prepare before you go to a bank for money. A business
plan, when created thoughtfully and strategically, is a blueprint for the future direction and growth of
your company. If you use it to lay out your objectives, chart a timetable with milestones, implement the
elements and consistently monitor your progress against it, you can take your business where you want it to go.
The most important reasons to have a business plan are:
- it provides you with a current, objective assessment of your business
- it aids in growth (internally and externally)
- it provides a rally-point for everyone in the organization. When everyone is headed in the same
direction, it is much easier to get there.
- it is essential to obtain financing
Creating a business plan doesn't have to be a daunting or grueling process either - T.A. Copeland
& Associates can help. We will help you look at the reasons you started your business and your
vision for the future. We can take that vision (your goals) and develop a strategic plan that, when
implemented and followed over time, will help you achieve your ultimate objectives.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. The goals of each small business owner and entrepreneur are
different and that requires different plans to reach those goals. There is however a sound approach
and method that can minimize the stress of developing and implementing a plan. The benefits go beyond
minimizing the chaos of day-to-day operations; it also helps you reach your ultimate goals. T.A.
Copeland & Associates develops custom business and strategic plans that are best suited for your
goals, industry and market.
