Gotta have a plan. We are event planners, media planners, social planners. I mean how hard could coming up with a business plan be? Segment market research, what? S-corp. tax filing huh? Payrolls, profit margins, expected break-even charts for years 1-3? O.M.G. I knew I should have taken more business classes at USC. Hmmm, now what?
Software, that’s what? God bless the modern age where there is a technical application for anything. Need to make a list, go to
http://www.tablists.com/. Want to find someone you haven’t seen since you were in diapers, search Facebook. Need to create a business plan, load up Business Plan Pro.
That is exactly what we did. We just started filling it one section at a time, one fact at a time. It takes you step-by-step from Name to Mission Statement, from Salaries to Competitive Edge. Brilliance is Elevated! Ha ha. Well its on its way to being elevated. Now, to those pesky filings…and oh my, do you know how much those things cost? So much for that new Michael Kors bag I have been coveting. Business first as they say.
In even more exciting news, we have finalized our logo (its freakin’ fabulous, if I do say so myself) and are days away from solidifying our final layout and copy for the website. As my good friend always says, “Things are looking up!”
Dream Big.
