Business plans to new endeavors or expansions are akin to
resumes for job seekers. Each is a necessary means amid the process for a
definite ends, whether in Atlanta, Georgia, New York City, New York, or a small
town in Iowa. How so?
Resumes secure job interviews, whereas business plans
obtain funding and provide a solid track or plan of action for initial and
day-to-day operations, once started. This is basically true everywhere in the
Western World. Without cash/capital a business simply cannot start 99.9% of the
time – or expand. Basic Business 101.
I write business blueprints for a living; yes, I am a
business plan writer/developer at Jimmy Hall Writing Services/Atlanta
(404-580-1501). These plans require
solid information from the entrepreneur and great business writing skills from
the writer. (Again, just like resumes.)
The same way most job candidates gather their info and
data and provide it to a resume writing service for a professional plan document
to be crafted, entrepreneurs gather info and write down or explain their unique
ideas to a professional writer to work-up their business plans for financial
institutions, investors, and potential partners and managers.
You see, both employers and financial
institutions/venture capitalists want to know the basics about people and how
they intend to operate once they are involved with them. What are the prospects
of success or failure of this employee or this organization? Will it pay a
lender or investor to provide cash? Can it be repaid or multiplied?
Understand that even a great idea means nothing without a
great plan and the right people managing and implementing it. The same is also
true for a job applicant; a great resume for someone that has somehow changed
for the worst means nothing.
Therefore, both resumes and business plans must project
the future, while using the past as a sound basis for this speculation and
projecting. What is going to be done is more important that what has been done
– but it is more complicated than that in both cases. How?
There are no exact formulas for success in employment or
running a business; day to day adaptation and changes are required. Measures
must be in place for change. Modern firms and modern people must be adaptable
in actions, yet firm in moral and ethical thought – and especially their base
missions.
What does all of this mean? Simple. A potential business
and a potential employee, by necessity, have a lot in common. Each must be able
to demonstrate the value they harbor and can unleash in the future. What?
Each person or business endeavor must also demonstrate by
way of resume or business plan how they intend to function and be used to pay
for themselves and then some. Potential employees and potential organizations
must demonstrate value to either an employer or a supplier of money and
capital.
No one or institution wants to lose cash on what turns
out to be horrible opportunity costs (the cost of money or time being used in
one area versus its better use elsewhere). Capitalism is about a profit motive,
hopefully a noble one.
