After 20 years of self employment and the last 4 as a small business consultant and coach helping people to start or grow their businesses, I can say with no shame I used to feel that business plans were only for wimps. That was until I did one.

It''s easy to knock something you''ve never tried. After many years of not only starting businesses but actually succeeding, without a plan Ottawa Senators Jersey , in them it would be easy to think that business plans aren''t necessary. Part of that lies in the fact most entrepreneurs are actually working a job not growing a business. That is certainly where my maturity as an entrepreneur was until I hit my mid 30''s. Sure I had earned an income and eeked out a life in a business of my own but I really didn''t see the "business of the business".

Plan every little bit of it and then re-visit this business plan often and make changes as things evolve. We''ve all heard it before - "when you fail to plan you plan to fail". Only when we sit down to do a business plan do we see it is so much more than that. Not planning a business causes us to fulfill the role we "thought of" when we thought of that business and not see the things planning would have taught us.
