Has anyone put together a business plan for their PC business? Not to get financing from investors or a financial institution but more to lay out mission, goals, etc. for internal purposes and tax purposes? If so, would you be willing to share that? I need something to build off of.

Thanks!
Tara
 
The only thing that I have used as far as a business plan goes is the worksheet that is in the Welcome booklet...it asks you to calculate your show and earnings goals, I really like it as it is so simple and I do one of these every January. I also utilize the programs in PP for most of my tax stuff.
