Soup to Nuts Videos on Business Planning

by Tim Berry on October 9, 2009

I’m pleased to say that the business.gov site is hosting my  Business Planning Tutorials, a collection of 13 videos I did for the site about business planning–soup to nuts, top to bottom. For the benefit of entrepreneurs and business, these are presented free.

Although I do cover the classic formal business plan, I’m happy to say that my emphasis in this series is on the business planning process, a tool for all the rest of us who don’t have a business plan event (like getting financed) to use to run our businesses better.

I also like the way that business.gov presented the series as 13 separate links on the same page, so you can look at the topics and see what interests you. You don’t have to take it one by one, or in any preset order.

If you’re at all interested in business planning, whether or not you need a business plan document to show to outsiders, I hope you’ll drop by the tutorials page at business.gov/start/business-plan-tutorials.html. It was a lot of work, for me and the team at business.gov that put it together, and I’d like to think it’s very useful. You don’t have to go start to finish in order, either. If you have just four minutes to spend, click on the “Form Follows Function” link and try that one. It’s my personal favorite.
