Ask any banker if they would consider lending money to you for a business that does not have a Business Plan. Once they wipe the tears of laughter from their face, they will look at you sympathetically and say, "Of course...NOT!". Why would they do such a mean spirited thing? Lenders know that without a Business Plan (1) They cannot make a valid judgment about whether your business idea is a good one or not and (2) They cannot be sure that you have thought through all the essential issues of your proposed business. And guess what... neither can you! Join our Business Plan workshop and learn how to assess the real chance your business has to survive in today's hotbed economy.

The speakers are successful business persons who will bring you first-hand insights.
