Description

Long business plans rarely get read. A one-page plan forces you to be clear about the problem, the customer, your offer and the numbers, and it's far easier to share and update. You'll work through each part of the page with examples from real small businesses, and finish with a plan you can send the same day.

I ran a café for six years before becoming an adviser to small businesses. I've helped over 200 owners write plans, set prices and get their numbers under control. I believe business planning should be short, practical and done in plain language.

    The break-even lesson was eye-opening. I raised my prices.
