Business plan
The preparation of a business plan is a vital tool for the establishment of a new business, which must be studied and drafted before decisions are made regarding tangible or intangible investments.
In preparing a business plan for establishing a new business, one must understand the differences that exist between what is “seen” in a business and what is actually “done” for the business itself.
The practical application of the ideas that may have led the entrepreneur to the decision to create a business should therefore be tested.
