plan not only increases your chances of obtaining financing, but
also in keeping your business strategically focused. With the
support of your instructor and a network of like-minded students,
you'll work through all of the major components of a business plan
and emerge with your first draft in hand. And most importantly, you
will have completed the first--and most difficult--step on the path
to small business success.
