In this episode of Business 101 we’re joined by Anthony Grafsky, NRV Business Advisor with the Greater Roanoke and New River Valley Small Business Development Center, for a deep dive into one of the most foundational pieces of business success: the business plan. Anthony walks us through the different types of business plans, how to get started on creating one, and what key factors like location, customer base, and funding strategy, that you should be thinking about from day one. We also explore how your plan can shape everything from your lender conversations to your daily operations.
More importantly, we talk about the value of having a trusted partner in your corner when you're developing or revising your plan. If you're starting or restructuring a business, this episode is your blueprint for how, and why, to plan with purpose.
