Entrepreneurs often need business plans — fast. Investors, banks, and planning departments regularly request them, and corporate employees often need to present such plans to their managers. What these people need is a guide to developing a high-quality business plan quickly — in short, one that cuts to the chase without cutting key corners. Enter Business Plan in a Day, an easy-to-use, easy-to-understand resource that offers solid advice from a recognized leader in the field. Drawing on the author's nearly 20 years of experience in developing, reviewing, and consulting about business plans, this standout book makes the process simple, without oversimplifying it. Instead, it uses a clear and concise approach, providing illustrations and worksheets to walk readers through the process, and ultimately enabling them to put together a plan — a quality one, no less — in a day.
