This free three-hour workshop gives participants the opportunity to map our their business proposal and develop a business plan.

Writing a business plan forces you to think logically and methodically about your potential business idea, assess its chances of success and work out if you can achieve the goals you set for the business.

It also helps clarify for other potential business partners, where the business is headed and make it easier to get constructive feedback from others, such as business sdvisers. It will also assist you in presenting your ideas when approaching a bank for finance. It’s much better to do this before you begin the business than to find out afterwards your business idea was unrealistic!

This workshop is designed for people who have already attended the Starting Your Own Business Workshop.

The workshop covers topics such as:

– Strategic planning and SWOT Analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats)
– Cash flow planning and seasonality
– Finance requirements of debt capital and leasing
– Market strategy based on market research
– Planning/reporting using a profit and loss statement and balance sheet

This workshop is being held at various suburbs in Adelaide on 3, 19 and 23 March, and  1, 7, 15 and 28 April 2010.
