Business Planning Laws
Each of the laws listed on the right
are critical in creating and achieving
exceptional performance.
Module 1
The Basic Transaction
“Cognitive capacity—as opposed to brawn—
continues to become a surer path to climb
that ladder into the middle class.” Joe Biden
Module 1
Opportunity Identification & Feasibility
Business Planning: We will start by
familiarizing yourself with the attached
Strategic Planning Document that you
will complete and your semester project
Module 2
Technology and the Legal Implications effect
every business moving forward ie. Amazon vs
Sears. Each new business must take into account
how to use technology to provide better service
faster at a lower cost.
Module 3 Biz Plans
Module 3 Funding
Funding will find you if you have developed
a better "mousetrap" ie. product or service
Funding is rarely the reason businesses do
not succeed. Not having an intimate knowledge
of the basic transaction and not having revenue
certainty are.
Module 4 Outside the Box
When considering your customers environment
it is sometimes helpful to
"drive with the windows down"
Also try to remember, if a man wants a
blue suit "turn on the blue light!"
The customer is always right when the
customer "Pays" to be right. You want
to avoid "high maintenance - low pay"
customers. Customers can be fired,
just raise your rates until they find
another provider.
