Starting a small medical transport business?

We Answered:

Business plans are not an easy thing to write. They must be very thorough in all aspects, who, what, where, and how is the business going to be run. You need to provide a cash flow analysis as well as projected income and market share.

You may be very knowledgeable in the medical field, but if you lack business experience, then I would strongly suggest you seed help from a business expert. Seed help from your local SCORE chapter or seek help from the Small Business Administration.

Here is a link to locate a SCORE counselor in your area.

Good luck on your venture

how to write a business letter or a business proposal?

We Answered:

put the date, say dear ______, and just be formal. informal letters could say "yo yo yo, whats up dog" and business letters (which is pretty much just being formal) sound like "Hello ___(whatever the persons name is)___, how are you doing." its very simple and chances are, it won't even matter if you right it formaly or not.

how can i prepare a good business plan?

According to the book “The ABC's of Writing Winning Business Plans: How to Prepare a Business Plan That Others Will Want to Read -- and Invest In” http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0… by Garrett Sutton, below are some tips to make a winning business plan that can get funding:

- Money follows management. Investors look first at the people involved in the company. If you are just starting out and don’t have relevant experience, investors expect to see that you have an experienced team of advisors and employees helping you in the business.

- Make sure you “sell” the one reason your business will become profitable.

- State clearly the strategies you will employ to get the word out about your business. Your business plan must show how you will leverage the Internet, public relations, viral marketing, and other strategies to attract customers.

- Present realistic estimates of the time, energy and costs of building a successful business. Do not underestimate or overestimate revenues. While investors know your numbers are simply guesses, they want to see that your numbers are within the “range of reality.” Be careful of your financial statements: this is one area where you can easily lose credibility if presented poorly.

- Benchmark similar companies to show that you’ve done your homework and researched the market.

- Your Executive Summary is your calling card. If it is not a winner, investors may not even read your entire plan. Emphasize your own as well as your team’s track record in the Executive Summary.

- Before sending your business plan to lenders and investors, send it out first to a few in order to get feedback. You’d want to correct your plan if someone tells you that you’re way off mark, rather than have a potential investor tell it to you and lose the chance to get the funding you need.
