Business Plans –
Do I Really Need to Do One?
How to Grow Your Business without Running Out of Money
So you have a new food product that will capture the public’s taste buds and rocket to success! Great – now let’s discuss how you develop a unique position to build your brand that will protect your product against your competitors, gain distribution of your product, fight your way to achieve consumers awareness, and choose a price that will help make your bottom line a positive number.
If you don’t know how you plan to market your product, and you have not identified how much each step of your business will cost until you turn a profit, you will have a very low chance of being successful.
Direct your “rocket” so that it continues to soar and avoids hitting the ground at high speed. That’s the role of a Business Plan and that’s why if you need to get some additional funding to keep the business growing, every investor, banker, and rich uncle will want to see your “Plan”. Let’s discover how a Plan works for you!
By attending, you will learn what the most important areas to plan for are and how to get started.
BONUS! Attendees will receive a Nielsen presentation covering a Recap 2013 and Predicting the Top 10 Trends for 2014 to Grow Your Business!
