How hard is it to write a business plan?
Many of us never start or are afraid to put pen to paper. It is all a bit overwhelming.
Dave Lavinsky was a student at university when he discovered that colleagues needed help to write a business plan. He also uncovered that he had the skill and innate ability to create business plans that worked.
It was a “side hustle” that turned into a “main hustle” and over 20 years later he has a team and business that has helped launch and grow many successful businesses.
Dave Lavinsky is now a serial entrepreneur having founded companies in multiple areas — from consumer products, to services, to internet websites and technologies.
Since 1999, he has run Growthink.com, a consulting and information products firm that has helped over 500,000 entrepreneurs and business owners to start, grow and sell their businesses.
He focuses on business planning, capital raising and methodical and sustained growth.
His book, “Start At The End: How Companies Can Grow Bigger And Faster By Reversing Their Business Plan” has been read by thousands of owners of both small and large businesses.
Many of them have implemented the strategies in the book and have dramatically grown their companies.
