Best book business plan for me, and for you too!

Every entrepreneur knows that they need capital to ensure the success of your business.
No, this is not the only need, but is actually one of the most important, no doubt about it. Another important aspect of starting a business is to have a strategic plan - a business and marketing plan. Most entrepreneurs do not know how to write a decent business plan, but they need to learn. Especially if you want to get dollars of investment and capital they need to make a go of it.

If you are in this position, it is a book I've read that I really like, and it helped me to develop my own business plans time to time, for my own various business activities. This is a book I have now, and the one in my personal reference library shelf. The name of the book is;

"Complete Business Plan - Writing a business plan has never been so easy!" Bob Adams, Adams Media Company, Avon Massachusetts, 1998 (451 pages); ISBN: 1-55850-845-7.

This book is recommended by the Director of Small Business Development Centers and Wisconsin SBDC. I believe in the mission of the CBD, and I am co-author of another book; "Franchise 101", which was also published in collaboration with the CBD in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Maybe that's why I bought this book, and I followed closely. From the first chapter in which he creates your own book of business plan takes the entrepreneur through what they need to know to get a bank loan, attract investors, and benefit plan.

There is a whole chapter on the questions and answers that need to write a business plan and how to prepare a privacy statement, a statement of the mission, and how competitive and market analysis. There are chapters on strategy, sales and marketing, operations and preparation of financial statements. There are also two very good business plans, one is for a business related services, and the other by a company's products.

This book comes with a CD that makes simple business plan format. In fact, part-time volunteer consultant for new companies to small businesses, a book I usually recommend, and I bought a few copies and handed them over the years. I think you should buy this book, and you have in your own reference library of business you will need in the future. Consider this.
