Summer-Fall 1993 *** MEMO FROM THE AUTHOR *** To: Entrepreneurs Subject: B/Plan Developer: Nuts & Bolts Planning Guide �컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴퀼 The goal is to get your project funded. B/Plan Developer provides entrepreneurs, business owners, and executives with the necessary strategies, techniques, and tips to prepare a market-driven and investor-centered business plan. Designed for those seeking cap- ital, B/Plan Developer is a hypertext guide that focuses on a stepwise process and documentation standards, to get the job done right...a nuts and bolts approach that works! B/Plan Developer takes the entrepreneur beyond the usual fill-in- the-blanks method advocated by other programs. (If preparing a business plan were a simple matter of fill-in-the-blanks then why are so many businesses UNDERCAPITALIZED?) Fill-in-the-blanks works only if you're presenting a business plan for funding to your mom, dad, or rich dying relative. Preparing a marketable business plan requires thoughtful analysis, intelligent planning, solid documentation, and comprehensive review to attract BUCKS...B/Plan Developer guides you through this pro- cess.
