But How Fast And Far Can You Fly On Your Own?
It takes the average entrepreneur 400 hours to complete a
business plan by themselves. (source: Small Business Administration)
That’s because a business plan must take into consideration
various factors that may not be the entrepreneur’s area of
expertise.
Here’s how to factor in your time:
400 hours x your hourly fee = how much it will cost you to write a
business plan on your own
Let’s not forget to add in the time it will take you to do three years
financial projections AND decide on a specific strategic goal,
identify the gaps to go from here to there, draw up your action
plan, and implement it.
