For most of us, our desires about where we would like to go are not as important as our businesses\u2019 ability to take us there. Put another way, if you choose the wrong business, you\u2019re going nowhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, one of the most valuable uses of a business plan is to help you decide whether the venture you have your heart set on is really likely to fulfill your dreams. Many, many businesses never make it past the planning stage because their would-be founders, as part of a logical and coherent planning process, test their assumptions and find them wanting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Test your idea against at least two variables. First, financial, to make sure this business makes economic sense.

Your customers have to want what you are selling for you to build a successful business and your business plan needs to describe the evidence that you\u2019ve found that proves that you\u2019ll be able to sell your products and services to customers.

It\u2019s the knowledge that you\u2019ve generated by going through the process that\u2019s important. Having a business plan shows that you\u2019ve done the homework of thinking through how your business will work and what goals you\u2019re trying to achieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you put together a business plan, you have to spend time thinking about things like your target market, your sales, and marketing strategy, the problem you solve for your customers, and who your key competitors are. A business plan provides the structure for thinking through these things and documents your answers so you\u2019re prepared for the inevitable questions investors will ask about your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if investors never ask to see your business plan, the work you\u2019ve done to prepare it will ensure that you can intelligently answer the questions you\u2019ll get. And, if an investor does ask for your business plan, then you\u2019re prepared and ready to hand it over. After all, nothing could be worse than arriving at an investor meeting and then getting a request for a business plan and not having one ready.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Related:&nbsp;<a
