Anyone with advice?

[Grinch]

Is someone actually going to give up some good hints? (stephen ) I really need to break down and buy "the box"!

[ldoonan]

Buy the box!! I thought I could do it and even had all the sba documents and tips ... but there's so much I "missed" and so many options available. Buy the box!

Business Plan

Get the Grooming Business in a Box. I got the 1st CD, and it practically does everything for you. You just enter all your information. I can't wait for the next CD that is coming out. There is a total of 6.

Good Luck,

Melissa

I think I will. I have the book but definatly like stuff where I can just fill in the blanks Thanks for the info. I hadn't heard from anyone who bought it yet.

I wish there was an easy "Box" when I was putting my plan together.
It was agonizing and took me months to write it.
We got a template to use in grooming school but it was still a long process.

I did my entire "mobile grooming" business plan from scratch with the help of Business Plan Pro. sheesh it was 100 bucks but it helped ALOT. I did the plan for my "pet shop management" course at the college for my semester project and we had ppl come in that do bus. plans to help us and get it all ready. It is now finished and is professional quality. I am happy with it and am proud that I finished that long thing! However, I saw the "box" and i was interesed to see what it had to offer, but at this time i just don't have the $$.

I just ordered the "box" to help give me a boost in getting money from the gov't for my mobile. Hope it gets here soon!

It gives you information on getting money from the government? The web site confuses me, what do you get in the box. Does problems to profits come in the box? Is there actually a box or are you just ordering 1 CD. I was thinking it was a box that included all this info for one price. Any info would be appreciated.

Mary-
I'm actually working with the small business development center (associated with the SBA) offered at the local college to help me get a business loan. I'm getting the "box" to help give me a really good business plan in the hopes that the gov't will excuse the fact that I have no collateral and I have no clue what my "debt to income ratio" is, given that I still live with my folks and am a college grad with school and car loans out the wazoo. Other than the business plan examples and fill in the blank stuff on the CD, I have NO clue what's in it. I thought the P to P was in it to, but I think it's a different book in the package. Hopefully I'll get it soon so I can find out.

[Mary1980]

Thanks so much....if ya can let me, let me know what you get in there. I'm so interested to know!

Stephen Note: Probably tomorrow more likely, Monday was postal holiday and the freeze in the Pacific Northwest isn't helping.

confused on business plan

I ordered the Start Your Own Pet Grooming Business Book and The Business Plan for your Pet Grooming Servide,(a computer based application to help you Plan, Start and Operate your Pet Grooming Service). Did I order the wrong thing? I need a business plan that I can present to the bank.

Jean, I don't know that you ordered the "wrong" thing, but the subject at hand is called "Grooming Business in a Box," developed by the webmaster here on these boards, etc...

If you look to your left and down (scroll down) you'll see it.

PS: Sorry I just realized you posted this, didn't see it until now.
