I'm looking for someone who's willing to educate me on the business side of owning and operating. Ideas for getting together a business plan is my biggest issue. No I'm not looking to purchase anytime soon. I'm easily a year away from that.
Looking for a mentor

Writing up a business plan for one. How it should be worded, what pertinent information is needed, how to talk to the investor/ bank. Questions and answers

Sorry I don't do business plans.
I find that I operate better with policies than a plan.
Most of the people I've helped do the policy thing.
A policy is a rule that says if this happens, than you do that and not that other thing.
There are quite a few people here who will help with a plan.
Oh and thanks for the plug rn88o6Lepton1 Thanks this. -
I didn’t have a formal buissness plan. I had a projected budget and that was good enough for my bank. I give them a annual P&L and projection for the next year. I didn’t borrow to much but they will loan me almost anything I’d ask for.

Remember the old saying that no plan survives first Contact? It's the same out here with this. Under estimating income, overestimating expenditures, and remaining flexible is mandatory.
Remember we are the epitome of customer service. If we don't deliver on time for the agreed-upon rate in a satisfactory fashion someone else will.Tkb, Lepton1 and jammer910Z Thank this. -
