About This Book

Often I come across entrepreneurs or ‘want-to-be’ entrepreneurs who have a wonderful business concept but have no idea as to how to operate a business. In general the issue can be resolved, but I personally prefer the option of identifying and discerning trouble before it arrives. Thus, One-On-One Business Planning was created to coach and guide entrepreneurs in their successful business pursuits.

This workbook is designed to assist you in building a business plan for results. The assignments are segmented into individual exercises to record, refine, rework, react, and respond to your business planning and preparedness. You will be challenged to think of your ideas from top to bottom, bottom to top, side to side, and from a four corner perspective so that you are able to process, plan, and prepare for growth, development, and results.

You will take a pre-assessment (DISC Assessment Sample) so that you have a true and accurate portrayal of yourself, your strengths, and your best way in which to work. Taking the pre-assessment (DISC Assessment Sample) will lead you into building upon the exercises which will eventually lead to your business plan and planning. The workbook is fashioned with activities with an objective, task(s), and questions to contemplate and study. Each assignment will be followed by note/journal pages to capture ideas, questions, insights, and thoughts. The exercises assist with completing your organization’s Business Plan. The completed exercises align your vision and plan closer and closer to actualization.

Effective utilization of the workbook and resources enable you to better build, process, and expand business planning, and ideas; however, you must take full responsibility for doing all assignments, completing them in a timely manner, and doing each assignment in order without skipping around or ahead. The workbook is designed with your successful business plan ready for implementation.

Each assignment contributes to the bigger picture of your business start-up. Commitment to completing all assignments in the workbook as well as the business start-up process will assist you in realizing your dream of owning your own business. You will be well on your way to process alignment and success!
