I'm beginning to think writing a good solid business plan is like having to double date with your younger sister. Years later it will prove itself out to have been a good thing, but during the event it's a MAJOR pain in the @55! Strong adult beverage #5 here I come!

I could give you a very colorful analogy...but I have to stay sweet and uphold my "girly" image...

Hey BeaCH cLUB,

Take my advice, use a consultant if you need a business plan. It is money well spent. I would recommend TanPlan from Pointblank Business Technology. Save yourself a lot of grief. Good luck to you.

I went with http://www.QuickPlan.com I've found it fairly simple to understand, good base info and examples, and customizeable. I think it was around $200 + tax. Only wish they'd have included the tables on the FUTA, FICA taxes etc for payroll deduction calculations. I've spent about 40 hours with this software so far in the past week and I'm probably about 5 hours from finishing my plan. When finished it generates 5 years of financials, working capital req's etc etc. All total I want to say it is gonna generate about 143 pages to submit to my financial banker for my loan approvals.

But I too want to hear DWhite's version
