Business Planning
If you are going to start, grow, or operate a business, you need a solid business plan. In addition to helping business owners obtain capital, they are critical for keeping organizations, size-irrelevant, focused and out of the weeds. They are decision-making tools and should contain enough information to provide direction when faced with uncertainty or pursuing a goal.
The level of detail required in the business plan depends on how it will be used. A business plan created for pursuing equity funding – requires different amount of detail than a business plan for pursuing a bank loan.
Empowered Business Strategies will prepare a business plan that meets your needs whether you need to attract outside investment or create a one-page story that drives a brand new bootstrapped venture. Our business plans are comprehensive including strategic and tactical objectives for marketing, customer acquisition and retention, messaging, and operations. Empowered Business Strategies' levered financial projections are essential for new business bootstrapping allowing you to adjust your business trajectory as your financial situation changes.
If you are pursuing external funding for your new or existing venture, let EBS help you build your presentation.

EBS makes giving presentations fun. We will hand pick your best content, build the graphic representation of the presentation, and coach you on your delivery of the presentation.
