Conduit Consulting’s
Start-Up Business Plan Workshop

This unique workshop is for all entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs who wish to avoid wasting time, effort and money while establishing and operating their new venture, regardless of whether you intend to self-fund or seek outside capital to grow your business.

Conduit Consulting’s Start-Up Business Plan Workshop is designed to help entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs effectively communicate how your business will embrace and capitalize on today's and future opportunities. When well-conceived and well-executed, a business plan can be an effective tool for orienting teams, securing alliance relationships, and raising capital which lead to enhancing your business’ valuation and expediting business success. Conversely, when businesses do not have a plan or it is poorly conceived, generally the business never launches or wastes considerable time and resources, then it eventually fails.

Our approach will help you reduce risk of failure. During this workshop, you will gain fresh perspective, strategic insights, relevent guidance and candid feedback and learn “how to” develop an executable realistic business plan as well as use it to advance along the road to success. Business Strategist and Corporate Development Specialist Jillian Alexander has extensive experience successfully positioning companies to launch, grow and achieve sustainable results. She will guide you to make strategic decisions that enable you to position your business for successful launch and profitable growth as well as be attractive to talented employees, strategic partners, lendors, and investors.

Topics Include:

WHY your Business Plan is one of your most important tools (Use it to control costs, mitigate risks and position for success)
WHICH specific elements are imperative in your Business Plan
WHAT business decisions you must make (and the consequences of choosing not to decide)
HOW to develop the Business Plan
> Developing reasonable future scenarios
> Forecasting Sales, Productivity and Financial performance
> Organizing Business Plan elements
> Determining the details -- Making decisions in uncertainty
> Weighing Full Disclosure vs. TMI ("Too Much Information")
> Ensuring quality
WHERE and WHEN to share the Business Plan (and how to protect it)

Registration includes 45-minute post-workshop One-on-One Business Plan Review & Feedback session.

As most participants will need time beyond that alloted for during the workshop to complete business plans, included in your registration fee is a 45-minute One-on-One post-workshop business plan review and feedback session. This session can be scheduled once your business plan is ready for review.

2023 Schedule
