Business Plans
After three years, only one out of three businesses remains standing. After five years, that
number is often as low as one out of 10. Why do so many fail? The lack of a business plan is
often cited as one of the two main reasons for business failures (the other is poor management).
Whether starting a new business, ensuring that an existing business is profitable, or growing a
business the right way; a business plan is key to being successful. Additionally, if a business is
looking for money, a business plan is a document that lenders and investors analyze before
deciding whether to provide the business with needed funds.
