Everyone thinks that creating a business plan is an exercise done mostly in Microsoft® Excel – nothing could be further from the truth. There are three main components to an effective plan, including a financial plan, a sales pitch and an execution plan. By writing an effective plan, the small business owner creates an opportunity to critically think of the questions likely to be asked along the way.
This webinar will help you:
- Create an effective financial plan that shows a 3-10 year forecast of the business
- Understand the Key Performance Indicators that potential investors will look for
- Help you better manage these KPIs overtime as your business grows
- Provide you with the information you need to make important business decisions about managing your business against risk
- Understand the value in Business Process Outsourcing
Join Jordan Lang from Avalara in the one hour presentation designed to give you the head start you need in starting your business and managing risk as you grow.
Participants in this webinar will also be subscribed to Avalara’s 12 part Small Business Management series, which provides ongoing support and thoughtful topics on getting your business off the ground and managing as you grow.
